I read on internet it’s possible to get DTV without income ? I have more than 100.000$ on my bank account.

Thanks
Answer summary
The original poster inquires about obtaining a DTV visa in Thailand without a stated income, stating they have $100,000 in their bank account. Several comments confirm that it is possible to obtain the DTV visa without income if one can demonstrate sufficient funds (minimum of 500,000 THB or its equivalent) in a personal bank account and engage in soft power activities. Some participants suggest exploring the LTR visa as a potentially more advantageous option due to its perks and longer duration, emphasizing that eligibility criteria differ for various visas.

Ohh ok that’s why. Laos and Philippines don’t usually ask but Vietnam seems to ask based on posts I’ve seen. All the embassies are different

Are you sure you want the DTV visa?

With the $$$ you say you have...

You might be eligible for the LTR Visa...a 10 year Thai Visa issued 5+5 years AND the best Thai Visa to obtain if you meet its requirements.

Look at it and if you qualify for it...

Forget about the DTV visa and apply for the LTR Visa.

You don’t need an income if you do soft power, you just need to have a minimum of 500k thb (equivalent in your currency) for 1-3 months depending on the embassy you apply at. And of course soft power activity.

Anonymous participant no need to have income for this visa. if you have the required amount (500k thb equivalent) in your personal bank account it will allow you obtain this visa.

@Daniel *****
its simple. if you have money in your account, you can just pay for a softpower activity/ course and you can obtain the DTV visa. However, there are other options that need someone to show income proof to apply for this visa.
