ORIGINAL POSTERHello! I am wanting to apply for DTV soft power Muay Thai. Embassy will be Vientiane in person. I have some questions. I have been on leave without pay from my job for the last year after having a baby and living off my partners income so I have not had any income in my bank account coming in. However I meet the $$$ criteria based on our joint savings account having over 1 million thai baht. Will that be sufficient? What additional information if any should I provide?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster is inquiring about applying for a DTV soft power Muay Thai visa at the Vientiane embassy, specifically regarding the financial requirements. They have been on unpaid leave after having a baby and have no personal income, but their joint savings account exceeds 1 million THB. Comments indicate that some believe a personal account is necessary, while others note that the financial requirement is a minimum of 500k THB in capital. There is some confusion regarding the documentation of relationship status and its impact on financial criteria.

Read the visa-section or the Thai Embassy in your country, and scroll through past replies in the group, to gat a feeling about how things work.
You know way to little, to make a application.

By partner, do you mean your fully legal spouse? If not, I doubt the Embassy will acknowledge that income as yours, regardless of the two names being on the account.

Anonymous participant ‘spouse’ means married so your post is somewhat confusing

Then you are not regarded as a couple.

I believe it should be in your personal name only. One person account, not a joint account. Correct me if I'm wrong.

There is no income requirent. The financial requirent is 500k THB capital in the bank.

Do I need to keep 400,000 THB in my Thai bank account for a marriage visa, and can I use that money?
