Hello. I'm a bit confused about the bank deposit for the pension visa. When can I withdraw the 800,000 THB, if necessary?

Once you receive your visa, you can withdraw and use the funds. However, ensure you deposit them back into your savings account three months before your visa extension expires. This is a common question in Thailand and applies to both the one-year retirement visa and the one-year spousal visa. After the visa is granted, you can use the money. As mentioned, however, make sure you have sufficient funds in your account three months before the extension expires. If you have any questions about this, please consult a lawyer when submitting your visa extension application in Thailand.
