Can I use a savings account as proof of funds for a DTV bank account in Thailand?

Hi everybody,

I have a quick question regarding the DTV bank account requirement. Has anyone used a savings account as proof of funds?

For example, my savings account doesn't have much activity, so I'm wondering whether there are any requirements regarding account transactions or activity levels.

I'd appreciate hearing your experiences or opinions.

Thanks!
Answer summary
Users suggest that having the necessary amount in a savings account is what matters for the DTV bank account requirement, rather than transaction activity. The funds should be accessible and in a legitimate bank account.

Should not be an issue. The funds need to be liquid. As long as you have access to them, you should be good.
