The conversation discusses the seasoning rules for demonstrating financial stability when applying for a Thai visa, specifically regarding the requirement of having funds (15,000 USD or 500,000 THB) in an account for a certain period. It highlights that the requirements may vary among different embassies, with many requiring at least three months of seasoning. Some commenters share their experiences, noting that results can differ even within the same embassy. Additionally, it’s mentioned that the ability to sponsor someone potentially allows the use of personal bank statements, and the specifics may depend on the applicant's circumstances and purpose of the visa.
