TLDR : Answer Summary

Several comments indicate that applying for the DTV visa from Vietnam using a brand new bank account with only a single top-up transfer of 500,000 THB and no transaction history is not advisable. The lack of a strong transactional history may lead to application rejections.

Not a good idea. Many applications were rejected for lacking strong transactional history.
