Should I show my current account statement or transfer funds to savings for visa application in Thailand?

Guys, I am self employed with my own sole proprietorship business in my country. I receive income in my current account. So should I show my current account statement or transfer money to savings account and show it?

I also have more than a million baht in savings. What happens if I transfer half of it to my savings just to show that 500,000 baht balance and keep it there for 3 months? Does that work? Or sell my car and keep that money in my savings account for 3 months (I don't need my car anyway).

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is self-employed and seeks advice on whether to show their current account statement or transfer funds to a savings account for a visa application in Thailand. They also inquire about the scenario of transferring a portion of their savings to demonstrate a balance of 500,000 baht, or selling a car for similar purposes. Comments suggest transparency by showing both income and savings, and that either option (transferring funds or selling assets) is acceptable.

Show everything, that’s what I did, why take the risk. Show bank statements, savings, income etc

You can transfer as mentioned or sell your car and transfer the proceeds. Good idea to show one account with business income, the other with the 500k.
