ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The DTV visa application requires evidence of financial assets totaling at least 500,000 THB, which can be verified through a 6-month official bank statement. Payslips and sponsorship letters may also be used, although their specific applications are a point of confusion. It's noted that sponsorship letters should typically be from the applicant's spouse or parent, supporting dependents instead of showing independent financial status. Additionally, there is some debate about the exact duration for bank statements required by different Thai embassies.
