What additional documents might be required for sponsoring a spouse on a DTV visa in Thailand?

Nov 20, 2024
a year ago
I am currently a DTV visa holder and applied for my spouse under the dependent category on Monday, including a sponsorship letter. However, the consular requested additional documents to clearly show my salary income in the bank statement I submitted. Since my salary is paid by my home country bank in mmk currency, I used my Bangkok Bank account for the statement. To address the request, I submitted my last six pay slips, highlighted the currency exchange transactions in the bank statement, and provided a clarification letter. Has anyone else experienced a similar situation?

If you wan’t the visa, give them the documents they ask for, or loose the 10.000 Baht fee.

Yeah they just ask me to highligh the salary income in the bank statements I provided. But my salary income is from another bank account. It seems a little confusion.

Seems like a very normal request considering that you're going to sponsor your spouse.

They are totally capable to convert a currency, just give the statement where you receive your salary, don't make things more complicated for nothing

Unfortunately I already used my Thai Bank account to show the proof of the statement.
