Can my girlfriend (not married) get a soft-power DTV if I have 500k THB on my bank account but not on her bank account?
Answer summary
No, your girlfriend cannot qualify for a soft-power DTV visa based solely on your bank account balance. She must have her own 500k THB in her bank account, demonstrate a minimum of 6 months engaging in soft-power activities, and provide proof that she can support herself during the visa duration. While you can sponsor her application, she still needs to meet the financial requirements independently.

You can sponsor her (I did for my partner). But my partner had 500k in his own account for 2 months.

🔍 search the group for “sponsor” and see what people’s experience has been recently.

I remember reading some people from London got sponsored by their parents. Which embassy would you apply from? London is one embassy which is more lenient regarding how long the 500k is in your account for.

I would still ensure she has 500k in her own account (to prove she can support herself), even if it’s only in there for 1-2 statements. And then provide her with a sponsor letter and your bank statements for her application where you also have minimum 500k balance

Her application is completely independent of yours as you're not married. She needs her own 500k, her own soft power activity of at least 6 months duration etc. She may also be asked to show how she will support herself for the 5 year duration of the visa.

No. Only official dependents - spouse, children, etc can get DTV for dependent.
