What are the bank balance requirements for obtaining a DTV visa in Thailand?
Do I just need to have 500,000 baht in my bank account to get a DTV visa or do I need to have 500,000 baht for 3 months?
Answer summary
To apply for a DTV visa, the requirement for having 500,000 baht in your bank account can vary based on the embassy where you apply. Some embassies may accept the balance as is, while others might require it to be maintained for a specific period, typically ranging from 1 to 6 months. For best clarity, it's recommended to check directly with your embassy.

I’d say to be safe 3-6. I’m currently applying again with it showing for 6 months, after being denied 6 months ago for only having it in my account for 1 month😅(didn’t know at the time). As others said it’s embassy specific, maybe even just up to the officer you’re dealing with 😂

For the DTV, it just has to be 500k equivalent, correct? Since doing it out of country, you'll still have the money in your own currency?

I think no limit as long as you have that amount money sitting in your account for guarantee security

It depends on the embassy you're applying at. It's usually either 1, 3 or 6 months.

you are actually wrong two times, not a World record, but you are welcome to try! Regarding the 500,000 THB bank deposit, it will be dependent on the embassy or consulate he uses for the application. Some want to see just the balance of the day, other will want to see the money has been in the account for 3 or even for 6 months.
