Does the 500,000 THB bank balance for the DTV visa need to be in a current account or is a savings account acceptable?

Hi!

I have a question about the 500,000 THB bank balance requirement for DTV visa.

The money is in a liquid savings/fixed deposit that appears on my main bank account statement.

Does that count, or does it have to be in a regular current/checking account?

Thank you!
Answer summary
The 500,000 THB bank balance for the DTV visa can be held in a liquid savings account, but it should not be in a fixed deposit as it needs to be instantly accessible.

It needs to be instantly accessible, so not usually term deposit.
