Has anyone applied for DTV recently? Just saw that the financial statements required have went down to 3 months instead of 6 months? Would it suffice if i just compile bank statements of 3 months in total?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The community is discussing recent changes regarding the duration of bank statements required for the DTV visa application, with claims that some embassies now accept just 3 months instead of the traditional 6 months. Responses indicate that the requirements can vary significantly by embassy and country of application. Many users recommend applying in locations like Vietnam, where the acceptance of 3-month bank statements has reportedly led to successful DTV visa approvals. The importance of demonstrating stable income and maintaining over 500,000 THB in the account is also emphasized for a smoother approval process.

I applied through the embassy of Hanoi. I only had the money in my account for 2 months but have had consistent income for 6 months and showed that & got accepted!

consistent income is the key word . They want continous flow of money. Not just 500k based on what i have seen with other applicants🙏

Every Thai Embassy has their own way of doing things, so when asking a question you HAVE TO tell which Embassy you want to / applyed at, or it is impossible to give correct answers.

But start by searching the group, for posts about that specific Embassy.

I did it in Hanoi last month and I was only asked to submit 3 months of statements. It might differ depending on where you're applying. My DTV was accepted 3 days later with no problems.

You only get ONE SHOT and you have no idea who is going to adjudicate the visa.I dont see a reason why you would just send 3 statements if you can send all 6. If the officer is not satisfied he will reject your visa and again NO REFUNDS

It depends on which country you plan to apply from. We recommend applying from Vietnam, as a 3-month bank statement is not required there. The DTV visa can still be approved.

However, regardless of whether you’re applying under the online work category or the soft power category, your documents must be sufficient to meet the visa approval requirements.

There is no standard that covers every embassy and consulate. Each can interpreted the requirements differently with regard to how long the 500k needs to be in the account.

It depends on the country of application, and your nationality can also play a role.

From our experience, the embassy will look at the overall financial profile. Applicants with funds in excess of the minimum THB 500,000 or those showing consistent monthly income tend to have a smoother approval process, even with slightly shorter bank statement durations.

We’ve seen several of our applicants get approved for the DTV visa from Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines, even with bank statements covering less than 3 months in some cases.

Requirements tend to be stricter... Not the way around. It depends on the embassy.

Where did you see a change? The whole 6-month, 3-month or 1-month requirement is usually embassy/consulate specific.
