Anybody know how many dependent DTV visas will be allowed under a primary visa holder? Has anyone had a dependent DTV visa application rejected because the primary visa holder applied for too many dependents? What's the biggest family someone has brought in under the DTV? Thank you for any information!
Answer summary
This post discusses the number of dependents that can be included under a primary DTV visa holder in Thailand. Commenters provide insights on the necessary financial requirements for each dependent, which is approximately 500,000 baht per person, and share experiences regarding successful applications with multiple dependents. The conversation implies that as long as the financial documentation is sufficient and legal proof of the relationship is provided, there shouldn't be issues with the number of dependents, with anecdotes mentioning families having up to five children applying together.

Maybe 54, if the wife had 18 sets of triplets and the husband never bought a TV... and had absolutely no hobbies

And of course in that case you'll need around 28,000,000 baht in the bank and applying for it would cost you around 540,000 bath...

How much money do you have sitting in your bank account? 9 dependants plus you comes to 5 million baht, before you show how you can support them all during the period of the visa

As long as you have 500k for each member and legal documentation that they are your children and are under the age of 20, I doubt there will be an issue. How many children you have?

@Kevin ******
two kids and a wife is nothing. Many on here have applied for similar. I thought you were going to say you had 10 children or something
