Hi there! I’m applying for the DTV under the digital nomad route, Jakarta and submitted a sponsor letter from my mum along with her bank statements (she’s covering my stay as the business is new). However, I just received a request to upload my personal bank statements too.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Does anyone know if a sponsor letter is not enough for the main applicant, even though it’s an option in the application portal?

Would really appreciate any insights, especially if you’ve applied recently or had a similar case. Thank you!

Answer summary

The user is seeking advice on the sufficiency of a sponsor letter from their mother for the DTV application under the digital nomad route in Thailand, as they have been asked to provide additional personal bank statements. Comments suggest that acceptance of sponsorship may vary by embassy, indicating potential complications for applicants.

thanks for your response!

is that likely the reason they ask for personal bank statement? Do they wanna see the 500k or just sources of income?

Anonymous participant The 500k is to show you can support yourself in reality. Sponsors could never be made to pay up for medical bills if they occurred. Income again is not a requirement officially but some Embassies again want to see some to see people can support themselves. Thailand sees a lot of unpaid medical bills each year. They were even considering a sort of tourist charge to cover them. It is really all about the visa holders being able to support them selves and also not to try and work illegally in jobs reserved for Thais.
