what is the monthly come you need to have to qualify for DTV workaction visa? thanks in advance.
Answer summary
To qualify for Thailand's DTV workcation visa, there is no official fixed monthly income requirement. The primary financial criterion is to show evidence of at least 500,000 baht in available funds in your bank account for the last three months. While regular salary credits are preferred by embassies, especially to match employment letters, having a stable remote job is also essential. It's advisable to maintain a bank balance above this threshold and provide supporting documents like contracts and payslips.

For DTV workcation there is no official monthly income rule in Thai law, main financial rule is five hundred thousand baht equivalent in bank for last three months. That is about twelve thousand pounds or similar depending on rate. You must also show stable remote work outside Thailand.

In practice London and other embassies like to see regular salary credits that match employment letter, so if salary is very low they may ask for more proof. High salary can trigger PAYE history request but is not a fail, they just check flow. Focus on keeping bank above threshold and showing contract plus payslips that align.

I saw clear breakdown of workcation income proof and how much monthly flow London wants to see in Unlock Thailand by Isla Rey on Amazon, it explains bank rule versus monthly income myth and how to present file. That part answers exactly this question.

No fixed monthly income but if your income is low it is important to show additional savings beyond the required 500k.

There's no official requirement but is believe that anything below 1000us$/month would raise some flags

Thailand’s DTV workcation visa has no published fixed minimum monthly income. The main financial requirement is evidence of at least ฿500K in available funds, rather than a particular monthly salary.
