Hey everyone. Questions keep coming up trying to apply for a dtv. Do we need evidence of residence when applying? I'm planning to stay at my friends condo and I'm planning to pay rent there. What's the best way to show that?

Also, to show 500,000 in the bank would the most current bank statement be enough? Thanks for the help.
Answer summary
When applying for a Thai DTV visa, evidence of residence is typically not required, only the address you're staying at. However, practices may vary by embassy, so checking specific requirements where you plan to apply is advisable. As for proving you have 500,000 THB in the bank, a current bank statement is generally sufficient, but again, it depends on the application site. Having a rental agreement can also help clarify your living situation.

Depends where you apply if you need to show residency in Thailand. Majority of embassies it is not a requirement. Current bank statement can be enough depending on where you apply. Decide where you are going to submit your application and apply accordingly.

No need for evidence of where you will be staying—only the address where you will be staying is required.
