How did you secure a DTV approval while not having the full 500,000 THB required in cash?

DTV approved - 5 business days, 2 additional document requests. Submitted 02 Jan 2025. Approved approx. 4 hours after second document request.

I'm in Australia (a local), run my own company, did not have 500,000tbh in cash to show.

Financial evidence:

- Contents page (found this to be very helpful as my second document request was for the same thing as the first and I forgot to update the contents page)

- Sponsor letter from family member

- Driver's license of family member

- Evidence of the 500,000thb in their accounts (document request updates were for updated statements)

- My personal tax return summary for the last 2 lodged years.

- Company P&L for previous tax year as not yet lodged.

Employment evidence:

- Contents page

- ASIC Company Registration

- Shareholders register of company (showing I'm sole shareholder)

- ABR Company extract

- Letter from company approving remote work

- Employment contract for myself from company (this was an additional document request)

- Link to my company website

- Links to portfolio of existing clients/work.

Thanks to all the comments and answers to other questions in the group, really helped me get this done in record time. Hope the detail helps someone else out!

TLDR : Answer Summary
A local Australian expat shares their successful DTV visa application experience, detailing the documents submitted for both financial and employment evidence, including a sponsor letter from a family member. The visa was approved within five days after submitting additional documents, even without demonstrating the required 500,000 THB in personal funds.
