Does proof of funds need to be from a checking account, or is a brokerage account acceptable for Thai visa applications?

The conversation discusses the requirements for proof of funds in relation to Thai visa applications. It highlights that while personal bank accounts are preferred, some US embassies may accept brokerage accounts. However, the majority require funds to be in an easily accessible personal account, ideally seasoned for at least three months to demonstrate stability. Specific embassy regulations may vary, but using a checking or savings account is generally considered best practice.
