Do I need to show 500,000 baht for each child when applying for a DTV visa for dependents?
I have 2 children and I wan to apply for a follower DTV visa for them. Do I need to show 500,000 for each child as well??
Answer summary
When applying for a DTV visa for dependents, it's generally not required to show 500,000 baht for each child. The main visa holder can submit a sponsorship letter confirming financial responsibility for the dependents. However, requirements may vary depending on the embassy, with some needing individual proof for each child. Notably, children under 18 may be exempt from certain financial requirements.

I applied in Munich. A sponsorletter for my 16 yr old was enough to get the visa.

In most embassies you’ll need to show 500,000 for each one and sponsorship letter won't work

No the main DTV holder the children under 18 follows parents

Jakarta, Phonm Phen and Kuala Lumpur will allow you to just have 500,000. You just need to write a sponsorship letter for the children’s applications.
No, you need to apply for all 3 visa’s while outside of Thailand.

In Israel I had to show I had 500k per person (posting anonymously cuz my family doesn’t know we applied for visas yet)

Children under 18 are basically exempt from overstays etc due to their age
So this might help out your cause
Good international preschools in places like bkk will run you around ฿120k-฿330k a year per child

Depends on the embassy you are applying with. Some are ok with just the minimum of 500K, others want to see 500k per child.

Which embassy is suitable so that only my money will be enough?Andi ***********
@Liraz *******
Jakarta has approved a family with just the main sponsor s 500K. Your children are very young 3 and 2.. Your application is strengthened if you can show more than 500K.Liraz ********
OPThank you andi 🙏

You can apply in one country for the DTV and enter Thailand with your kids. To obtain add on DTV for your kids you must apply outside of Thailand. Very likely your money is enough as your kids are very young.Liraz ********

Is it possible to submit the application for me to DTV from one country and then enter Thailand with the children and attach them to a follower visa from within Thailand without showing any more money?Wannikea *********
Typically no. The main DTV Holder will write a sponsorship letter saying that they will be responsible for the financials of the dependent, and resubmit the funding proof. How old are the dependants?
