Anything wrong with land border runs with DTV these days?

Coming up to my first 180 days
Answer summary
The discussion focuses on the process of applying for a Non-O visa, especially concerning the financial requirements related to bank statements and funds held in Thai or UK accounts. Users clarify that while you need to provide three months of bank statements, the funds do not have to be in the account for a full three months prior to the application. Additional information on acceptable types of accounts and balances needed is also presented.

As far as I am aware money has to be instant access.

And as you state 400k thb I assume you are applying for a visa based on marriage.

You can show money in your UK account or you can show it in your thai bank account, doesn't make a difference on the E Visa website

just remember you need to upload three months of bank statements and the 400k has to be in the account as a balance when you apply for the visa.

Sorry I have no idea if you can show a premium bonds account or not for the balance

Hi Tod, I have just transferred money into my Thai account 656,000 baht from my personal UK account.

This was transferred on the 25th June, so does this mean I cannot apply for the Non-0 visa until 25th September?? As that would have been in for 3 months then.

There is NO requirement that the funds be in the account for 3 months before you apply for a visa thru a thai consulate online using the eVisa webportal.

The requirement is you show 3 months of bank statements (doesn't matter the balance on those months) and the funds have to be in the account when you submit the application
