How can I prepare my bank account details for a Thai DTV visa application?

Aug 9, 2025

Regarding two bank accounts:

My bank separated my current and fixed deposit accounts into two accounts, making it appear as though my funds were held in two different banks.

When applying for DTV, I wrote a letter explaining that they were held in the same bank, but the consulate simply ignored it.

They didn't look at the total amount; they needed to be in the same account to meet their requirements. So, I transferred the money from my fixed deposit to my current account, and that was approved.

If you also have two accounts, I recommend combining your funds.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a Thai DTV visa, it's crucial to have all the necessary funds in a single bank account. One individual faced issues when their funds were divided between a current account and a fixed deposit account, leading to a rejection despite providing an explanatory letter. The solution was to combine the funds into one account, which led to a successful application. Other commenters recommended ensuring that funds are consolidated to avoid complications during the application process.

Anyone else have this problem - I will be applying in Australia shortly and have two main bank accounts with different banks - one has 60% of required amount and balance in the other.

Is this likely to be a problem?

Good piece of advise. I would have thought that if the combined total of two separate cash accounts was enough it wouldn't be a problem. Goes to show what I know! 😆

I had my funds distributed over three accounts. I saved all 3 statements then using a PFF merging tool merged them into 1 PDF file. It was accepted without question. Sydney Consulate.

Always make it as easy as possible for the Embassy, to understand, even it is inconvenient for you.
