For Hanoi, I've read tonnes of posts here and just curious about how many months you all have that 500,000 Baht in your bank statements for? (love to know the shortest period of successful cases ;) Thank you!

TLDR : Answer Summary
Many expats shared their experiences regarding the requirement of showing 500,000 Baht in bank statements for visa applications in Hanoi. While some mentioned successful cases with just 5 months of bank statements, it was noted that there is no strict requirement for a specific duration. However, a period of 3 to 6 months of consistent account activity is generally expected.

There’s a lot of information on this topic already, so I’d recommend using the search function — it’s really helpful.

That said, since I’m already here: Hanoi doesn’t require the 500k to be seasoned in your account for a specific length of time. However, they generally expect to see 3–6 months of bank statements showing consistent account activity.
