onemorechang Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Need some information. I wish to renew my 12 months extension of stay (retirement visa) in a few months time, the 800.000 in the bank, does it need to be all fresh money or can you use some money still in the bank from the last year, all the moneys are from outside of Thailand, at the same bank, same account, Just wish to know before I transfer money over to Thailand. Also is it a maximum of 30 days before end of extension that you can renew it early ? Anyone ? Thanks, onemorechang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 The money does not have to come from outside of Thailand, just needs to be seasoned for 3 months in the bank account. You can apply up to 30 days early and at some imigration offices even 45 days early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 (edited) Using multiple accounts is OK? I was told before at Jomtien that it was, but have not tried it, and wondered if the rule may have changed. Yes I understand that complicates determining the seasoning part.

allane Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I have successfully used multiple accounts, in my case, from the same bank. You only need to "top up" your account(s), i.e. replace the money you have used in the previous year. It is not a requirement that you bring in B 800,000 every year.

Jingthing Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Thanks. I might have to do it using two different banks. I imagine they will be looking for transfers between the accounts but there won't be any of those. I've been trying to avoid this, but may not be able to next time.
