Can I still apply for a student visa in Thailand if my DTV visa application is rejected?

ORIGINAL POSTERApplied for the DTV visa in Beijing where I live. They're asking for the equivalent of the 500,000THB to be deposited and frozen in a Chinese bank account for 1 year. They also require other stuff that they normally require from Chinese nationals. I will send what I have but I am wondering, If I get rejected, can I still go to Thailand on visa exemption and apply for a student visa there or would that affect my records for getting new visas? Thanks!
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user has applied for a DTV visa in Beijing, which requires a significant bank deposit in a Chinese bank account. They wonder if a rejection would affect their ability to enter Thailand on a visa exemption and apply for a student visa. Responses confirm that a rejection does not impact future visa applications and emphasize that the loss would only be the application fee. Suggestions also include considering applying from other locations, like Hong Kong or Laos.

The Thailand government has done a fantastic job relaxing visa requirements in the kingdom for people that respect the rules.

Rejection only means you lose your application fee. Nothing else

I applied for eVisas from my home country while not in my home country. Several people in this group think it's a bad idea, but it seems to work out for me.

That my friend is a matter of opinion. This group thinks... but it really doesn't matter. What does matter is what the Embassy thinks, and I am honest with them.Reply to

perhaps they think it's a bad idea to falsify the application. Many will think it's ok, but misuse could eventually lead to rules being tightened.Reply to

We applied for DTV in HK, you apply via thai e-visa, it took 7 working days. Including that time they requested for extra documents but we repiled with the extra documents immediately/on the same day.
Response wise, they would respond to our submitted documents in 3 days maximum, sometimes quicker.

Wtf? Scam central, Chinese banks are notorious for going bankrupt. I advise you to move the money to your own country and apply in Laos. Never trust the Chinese.

the CCP are hiding it from you. The smaller banks that leveraged the loans to the bad real estate companies are going under every day. They are trying to sweep it under the rug by having the larger state banks take them over. Your money is not safe in China or move out of China.Valerio **********

I think you usually need proof of legal entry and accomodation address( hotel? Airbnb? ). Others seem to have done that.Reply to

A rejection would not affect your ability to apply for a different visa elsewhere.
