TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for the soft power DTV in Dubai, it's essential to first secure approval for the main applicant before you can submit applications for dependents aged 12 and 18. Each dependent must have evidence of financial support, requiring 500,000 THB maintained in a U.A.E. bank account for at least three months prior to the application. This financial necessity is crucial for ensuring the application proceeds smoothly.

If you’re applying under the dependent route, you’ll need to first get approval for the main applicant before submitting for dependents. The financial requirement is 500,000 THB per dependent — this needs to be clearly shown in a bank account for at least 3 months at the time of application.

For applications in Dubai, the 500k THB must usually be held in a UAE bank account for 3 full months.
