What are the requirements for funds seasoning and account activity when applying for a visa in Jakarta?

Is there some consensus on how long funds need to have been seasoned when applying with Jakarta? And does the account need to have any specific activity to be accepted, like daily expenses or regular deposits? Was anyone ever rejected with Jakarta that actually had 500k THB in their account as ending balance?

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a visa at the Thai embassy in Jakarta, there is some flexibility regarding how long funds must be seasoned in the bank account. While the official guideline suggests a 3-month seasoning period, experiences shared by applicants indicate that funds held for a shorter duration may be accepted, especially if the applicant maintains a balance above 500,000 THB and demonstrates a regular or passive income. Additionally, one comment from the embassy indicated that funds should ideally be in the account for at least one month prior to the application.

When I emailed them, they said the money should be there 1 month before applying

From our experience assisting applicants, the Thai embassies in Indonesia (including Jakarta) have accepted bank accounts with funds held for a shorter period than the official 3-month guideline in some cases.

That said, other factors can play an important role, such as having funds above the 500,000 THB minimum, and showing some form of regular or passive income. These can help strengthen the application even if the seasoning period is shorter.

Each embassy still has discretion, so it’s best to prepare as strong a financial profile as possible.
