Has anyone applied DTV through soft power (Muay Thai)? Am I required to show monthly income if I meet the minimum requirements for the bank balance?

TLDR : Answer Summary
Individuals applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) while using soft power, such as Muay Thai, do not have to show proof of monthly income if they meet the minimum bank balance requirement. Although there is no strict requirement for monthly income, providing proof of regular income can enhance the chances of visa approval. Furthermore, while income documentation may not be mandatory, immigration officials may inquire about one's financial plans during the interview process.

Just to add, it is not a requirement to provide monthly income if you already meet the minimum requirement. That being said, showing a regular income will improve your approval chances significantly.

Generally the embassies wants to ensure that DTV visa applicants are able to support themselves in Thailand. So having a good amount of funds above the minimum requirements also plays a part.

While income is not a requirement they may well want to see how you plan to support yourself for the 5 years
