I am a freelancer with my own company (of 1) planning on applying in the coming days. 

> Can I use my business bank account to show proof of funds/income? I am the registered owner of the company. 

> Can a brokerage account be used?

Thank you!!

Answer summary

The original post inquires whether a freelancer can use a business bank account or a brokerage account as proof of funds for a Thai visa application. The consensus from comments indicates that funds must generally be in a personal bank account, as many embassies worldwide do not accept brokerage accounts to meet the financial requirements for the visa.

So funds will need to be in a personal bank account. HCMC seems to be the "easier" option at the moment.
