Hi everyone! 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 then I 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
The user asks whether they need to show an additional 500,000 baht in their account for a dependent visa for their child after being approved for a DTV visa, which already requires 500,000 baht. Commenters suggest that the requirement varies by embassy; officially, the 500,000 baht is needed for each dependent, though some embassies may not require this for children.

Officially the 500K requirement also is for each dependant, but some embassies don't need for children

It depends on the embassy.
