Answer summary
An expat flying to Thailand from Australia inquiring about applying for a Thai Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) before returning to Australia. While others suggest applying online from Australia for quicker processing, it's clarified that DTV applications must typically be made from outside Thailand. Various comments mention specific embassy requirements regarding financial documentation, emphasizing the need for a 500,000 THB balance for specific periods. Some suggest applying from countries like Laos or Indonesia due to less stringent requirements.

@Andrew ******
are you saying the 500k has to be in the bank for 3 montjs before applying?

Yes, and it seems to me like they want you to maintain that balance for the duration of the visa. I wouldn't be surprised if they ask to see updated statements when applying for an extension or entering again in the future. I'm just going to mantain that balance while maintaining this visa

Vietnam, Jakarta are easy to apply from with a month balance of 500K plus other statements, 6 is best to avoid requests for more. There is a recent post from a NZ family of 4 who applied in Jakarta, check that out.

Not all, Laos 3 months, Malaysia possibly 6mths. Vietnam, Cambodia, Jakarta, Taipei, Yangon are ok with a month ending balance of 500K plus several months' statements. You can read the threads to confirm this from successful applicants.

We have until.Jan 25 for the 60 days..so we can probably have a month and a half time to keep the funds in account before applying

You have to apply from outside Thailand, some Embassies require seasoning of the 500k. Suggest you check out the relevant websites.
