I’m about to re apply for DTV visa I have over 500k thai baht deposited into my account for the past 3 months. Will the deposited amount be enough or do I have to literally keep 500k thai baht frozen in there for ending balance

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring whether having 500,000 Thai Baht deposited for three months is sufficient for reapplying for a DTV visa or if the funds need to be maintained without any transactions. Community comments suggest that consistent activity in the account may be beneficial, and there are variations in requirements across different embassies, further noting that some may request different amounts.

Reapply? Was your application rejected before? Or do you mean you are trying to get an extension inside the country?

Each embassy location may have different rules for minimum savings amount. Thai Embassy in Los Angeles wanted $17k USD minimum. This was around Feb 2025.

If there are no transcations each month it simply shows that money is being lying there for visa. Make sure account send and rec money actively.
