ORIGINAL POSTER
Hello everyone,

I’m currently getting all my documents ready for DTV application this coming May in Jakarta. Will also be applying a dependent DTV for my 16 year-old son. I just have one very important question which I hope I could get some help from this group with. Would the 500k in my account and a sponsor letter for my son (from me) be sufficient for his application? Or do we need another 500k for him? 😬🙏🏼 thanks so much in advance everyone!

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is preparing to apply for a Digital Nomad visa (DTV) in Jakarta and inquires whether having 500,000 THB in their account, along with a sponsor letter, is sufficient for their 16-year-old son's dependent visa application. Community responses suggest that 500,000 THB is not adequate; it is recommended to have at least 1 million THB to cover both the applicant and the dependent.

The embassy will decide whether it's enough and request more funding proof if they choose. I'd definitely provide a balance equal to two persons, you aren't supporting a baby or toddler.
