TLDR : Answer Summary

When applying for a DTV (Dental) visa at the Thai embassy in England, the requirement for the 500,000 THB balance in your bank account does not necessarily require a minimum 'seasoning' period. Some applicants have reported that their funds were only in the account for a couple of days before obtaining a full bank statement. It's advisable to consult posts from successful applicants specifically referencing the London embassy for further insights.

Mine for UK was in there for a couple of days, which was the min amount of time before I could get the bank to generate a full statement for me.

The london embassy seems to approve a balance without any seasoning. Use the group search tool with keyword London and read through the posts of successful applicants.

can’t speak from personal experience but I’ve heard someone on the group say they got rejected because it has to be in a personal account.
