ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello, apologies if this question has already been answered, but I searched the group history and did not see anything relevant.

Will an IRA account + balance suffice for financial evidence of sufficient funds or does this need to be stored in account that is considered more liquid?

TLDR : Answer Summary

An IRA account does not qualify as sufficient financial evidence for the DTV visa application. The required funds must be held in a personal bank account in your name with a minimum balance of 500,000 Thai baht, and it should be easily accessible.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

No it will not meet the requirements for the DTV visa. It MUST be a bank account in your name. 500,000 Thai baht or more. Look at the Thai Embassy or Consulate website where you are going to apply for their requirements.

Should be in an instant cash accessible personal bank account.
