Hey everyone, I recently applied for the dtv visa and I got approved. Now I need to apply for my spouse, my question is do I need to provide financial proof for her that she has 500,000 baht? 

If yes, would my personal bank account work if I have 1m baht and I write a letter sponsoring her fully for any financial needs? Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquired about the financial proof needed for their spouse's DTV visa application after their own approval. They asked if they could use their personal bank account showing 1 million baht, supported by a sponsorship letter. The responses highlighted varied embassy requirements regarding financial proof, the importance of documenting the DTV visa approval, and clarified that a sponsorship letter is usually sufficient, although the type of bank account may also matter.

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.

You seem a bit all over the place on this bank account on different posts across different groups. Is it a personal bank account or is it a joint bank account? If the latter the MFA and Thai immigration will view it as half the money in the account being yours and half the other account holder. Nonetheless I believe all you need is a sponsorship letter from you saying you are responsible for your wife's expenses

It was my personal account when I applied for my dtv visa. Now I changed to a joint account with my wife’s. I have more than 1 million baht. If they will view it as half for me and half for her then I should be good? Also I will definitely include a sponsorship letter regardless. Thanks for you input.

Some embassies accept that, and some don't.
