Hi everyone, I have a question regarding the DTV application process, specifically for Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Has anyone successfully been approved for a DTV without personally showing the full 500,000 THB in funds, but instead using a sponsor letter (for example from a family member, or sponsor covering financial support)?

If yes, could you share your experience and what documents you provided? Did they still require bank statements in your own name, or was the sponsor documentation enough?

Thanks in advance for any insights.
Answer summary
The post queries whether it is possible to secure a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) without showing personal funds, by instead using a sponsor letter from a family member or other sponsors. The author seeks advice on accepted documentation and experiences from others who may have taken this route, specifically from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Comments suggest either using the sponsor's funds temporarily in the applicant's account or looking for previous discussions on sponsorship in the group.

Do a search in this group for "sponsor" and "sponsorship". Maybe even add in "Ho Chi Min" or just "Vietnam". See what results you get that may help you.

Huh? Sponsorship? Ask your sponsor to put 500K thb on your account for few months.

People are creative …
