I have a question if I’m added to my mothers bank account can I still qualify for DTV? Going to take cooking classes
Answer summary
The question pertains to qualifying for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) while being added to a mother's bank account for financial support, especially in the context of taking cooking classes. Comments suggest that for joint bank accounts, there may be a requirement of having double the savings amount, specifically mentioning 1 million THB, and that age may also play a role in eligibility.

I think it topicstarter does not want to have a dependant visa, but wants to use the bank account he shares with his mother to apply for himsef a DTV. I think some embassies might accept that, but then want double the money on the account.
