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?
Answer summary
Applicants for Thai visas in Jakarta generally need to ensure their funds are seasoned for at least three months. However, experiences shared by others suggest that some have had success with shorter seasoning periods, such as one month, especially when documentation shows sufficient funds above the 500,000 THB minimum and proof of regular income. While the Thai embassy has the discretion to accept various financial profiles, providing a robust financial background is advisable to enhance one's application.

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.
