zyphodb Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Hi there, My problem is Iv'e been on a one year extension of stay from a non o marriage visa with 90 day reporting, this runs out on the 21 Sept. but my 400K in the bank will be 14 days short of the 3 months 'seasoning' in the bank, (ridiculous rule but TIT) so presumably I need to go to Vientiane to get a single entry non o & extend that back at Kohn Khen, but the money in the bank still won't have seasoned before my visa extension runs out, so will I be able to get a single entry non O from Vientiane without full seasoning of 400k in the bank or have I got to just cross the border & get an ordinary 30 day entry stamp, & then when money has seasoned get the single entry non o marriage & get that extended? & as I won't have an outward bound ticket of any description, as I live here will that be a problem? plus do I need to show them 20K cash at the border despite having a Thai bank book with more than 400k in? Alternatively is there some way that I might get this fixed at Khon Khen Immigration without having to leave the country? Or should i go to Savannakhet & try to get the non O without showing the cash? Thoughts would be appreciated thanks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Unless you are in Phuket the money only has to be in bank for 2 months for an extension based upon marriage. Three months is only needed for retirement extensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaidDown Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Extension for marriage only requires 2 months seasoning, although some Imm offices do not know the rules and insist on 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 The seasoning period is not 3 months (it is 2 months) so you will qualify several weeks before expiration. (6) In case of marriage with a Thai lady, the husband who is an alien must have an average annual income of not less than 40,000 baht per month or a money deposit in a local Thai bank of not less than 400,000 baht for the past 2 months for expenses within a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
