For the Thailand DTV visa, do a husband and wife need to show 500,000 THB each, or is 500,000 THB total enough?

For the Thailand DTV visa, do a husband and wife need to show 500k THB for each, or is 500k THB total enough?

My husband is the main applicant, and I will apply as his dependent. He has 500k THB in his bank account. Can we both apply with that?
Answer summary
When applying for the Thailand DTV visa, each applicant, including dependents, generally needs to show 500,000 THB in their bank account. This means that for a husband and wife applying together, a total of 1,000,000 THB is typically required. Some users have noted that it may depend on the embassy processing the application, and in some cases, funds can be transferred between spouses to meet the requirement. However, it is advised to check with the specific embassy regarding their policies.

I've done with 500k only, did mine and then moved the money to my wife account, without waiting 3 months.

Both in Brazil

Lucas Saliba These tricks to circumvent the requirements are the reason they often want seasoning of the money now, and also ask the bank statements of the primary applicant again.

Luit van der Linde it is not a trick as the seasoning depends on embassy

Lucas Saliba Using the same money while requirements say every applicant needs its own just is a trick, but maybe too difficult to understand for some people.

Lucas Saliba That's one way around it but for many Countries you'll need to wait 3 months. Obviously if you need to do it that way then money is obviously tight and you probably shouldn't be leaving you Country of origin

Steve Greir you can send an email to the embassy and ask if they require 3 months.

If you have 500k/1m baht parked in your account, you need to learn how to invest money.

OP
Lucas Saliba If my husband transfers the money to my bank account, don't the embassy ask about my source of funds? I don't have job

Each DTV is approved individually, so both applications need to have the 500 K.

probably because all they do is upload your documents to the eVisa online system then has no influence on it's approval so cannot justify a big fee

they've refused to do DTV incountry for your agent. Probably because DTV should not be applied for in Thailand.

she may not be using an agent, so applying direct before arriving shouldn't be a problem.
