Do I need to show 1 million baht for a DTV visa and dependent visa for my child?

ORIGINAL POSTER
Quick DTV visa question.

I know I need to show 500,000 baht in my account for my application. If my visa is approved and I later apply for a dependent visa for my child—do I need to show another 500,000 (so 1 million total), or is the original amount enough?

Planning to apply from Vietnam. Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a Dependent Visa for your child after securing a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV), you typically do not need to show an additional 500,000 baht. Dependent visas are usually processed alongside the main application and have different criteria. However, specific requirements can vary by embassy, so it is advisable to check with the embassy you are applying to for confirmation.

No, dependent visas for family members of DTV visa holders are usually processed alongside the main application and have different requirements.

That's up to the embassy you apply at. Each embassy sets their own requirements.
