What are the current requirements for the DTV freelancer visa in Thailand regarding the minimum bank balance?
Flying into HCMC this Thursday to apply for the DTV freelancer visa. I have all my documents in order however I'm hearing mixed reports on the min balance of 500,000 baht requirement. Apparently it's getting more difficult there recently.
I have the balance in my bank account as of the end of January. I will only have last month's statement showing 500,000 baht and about 100,000baht for the previous 5 months.
If I wait a couple of days after i get to HCMC I could provide a second month with the balance for March when my monthly statements are issued, but would prefer to apply right away if it doesn't make a difference.
Can anyone confirm or deny this? Or is it hit or miss at the moment? Any advice?
TIA

Answer summary
A user is flying to HCMC to apply for a DTV freelancer visa but is concerned about the requirement for a minimum bank balance of 500,000 baht. They have conflicting information regarding the necessity of showing this balance, especially since they only have one month's statement with the required amount. Another user suggests that the bank balance may not be the sole focus and recommends preparing alternative income proof such as PayPal or Western Union payslips.

It won't make much difference. Instead, try preparing proof for alternative sources of income such as PayPal or Western Union payslips for at least 3 months.
