Hello my family

Husband , wife, 3 children will be applying for dtv in Hanoi .

We've got some conflicting answers as we can't find any information on websites

Do we each need to have 500k baht in the bank ? Or just the primary DTV holder (my husband )

Would sponsor letters work for me (wife) and 3 children ?

We both work remotely from an American company . And have a joint bank account . TIA ๐Ÿ™

TLDR : Answer Summary
A family is applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Hanoi and seeks clarity on the financial requirements. The husband is the primary applicant, and there's confusion about whether both parents must show 500,000 baht in a bank account or just the primary holder. It's noted that having a joint account would require sufficient funds, but the children can be supported by the primary holder's finances.

If you have a joint bank account you're going to need double the money in it anyway so you may as well both apply individually.

The kids should be fine showing the primary DTV holders finances.
