ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
You can apply for a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) in Thailand with a bank balance of at least THB 500,000, even if you have no income. Many applicants have successfully received their DTV visa for attending cooking schools or Muay Thai classes under similar circumstances. Generally, you will need to attend a minimum number of classes, which usually ranges from 5 to 6 classes per month, depending on the program you choose. Make sure to obtain a legitimate invitation from the school to facilitate the visa application process.
