London / UK DTV Applications

I have read here and on other forums online that with the DTV application the U.K. embassy only requires ‘10 days seasoning’ for the 500k baht balance rather than the FULL 3 month history required across Asia.

But, I’ve also seen this:

Can anyone advise which is correct / if they have had their application approved with just 10-14 days seasoning?
Answer summary
Confusion persists among applicants regarding the bank statement seasoning requirements for the Thai DTV visa application at the UK embassy. While some participants in forums assert that only 10 days is necessary, others state that the requirement is for 3 months of history. Replies suggest that the approval process and requirements can vary by the individual embassy, with some accepting shorter seasoning if the balance is adequately maintained. It is advised to directly contact the embassy for clarification to avoid misinformation.

It depends on the embassy or consulate you're applying through. Some have accepted a shorter bank history if the required balance has clearly been maintained, while others still ask for several months of statements. Before applying, I'd recommend checking the specific requirements of the embassy where you'll submit, as they can differ slightly.

So strange compared to everyone else’s experience - This is why I’m checking. 3 months of bank statements or 3 months of 500k?

I recommend you look at the Thai embassy website for the UK, and email them your specific questions. They reply within 1-2 weeks, and will tell you all you need to know.

Answers in forums will only leave you more confused, ime.

It is important to note that only current, instant access savings, and Cash ISA accounts are accepted. Bank statements issued in the UK or Ireland will be considered as primary financial evidence. The required amount of financial evidence must be held for at least 10 days prior to the submission of the DTV application until the visa decision is made. The bank statement should be dated for the last 3 months. Unfortunately, any investment-related accounts such as Premium Bond cannot be accepted

Have a search. Many have had DTV approved UK with the 10 days seasoning. I think someone posted an actual message from the embassy with the requirement
