What are the official requirements for proof of savings for the DTV visa in Thailand?

DTV visa Thai visa rules proof of savings bank statements financial requirements embassy requirements

ORIGINAL POSTER

I have a few questions about the proof of savings of 500k for the DTV visa.

Some seem to provide 3 months of bank statements & some 6. How many months are actually officially required?

If your savings are held in different accounts and you transfer them into the same account, how long do you have to show the full 500k in that account for them to accept it?

Another option of financial proof seems to be payslips. If you own a business and invoice clients weekly, would that be acceptable? 

Do they accept proof of a certain monthly income rather than 500k savings?

Or weekly income paid by clients into a personal bank account?

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The official requirements for proof of savings for the DTV visa vary by embassy, as each embassy sets its own standards for the number of months of bank statements required, ranging from three to six months. To show the full 500k savings, it's important to present the amount in a single account, though the duration for which it must be held may also depend on individual embassy guidelines. Pay slips or other income proofs are generally not accepted; the focus is solely on the required bank balance.

The official number of months for bank statements is however many your embassy requires. Each embassy sets their own requirements.

There is no provision for income for DTV. It's bank balance only.
