ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The 500k requirement for a Thai visa can be confusing. It generally refers to maintaining a total of 500,000 THB in your bank account, but the interpretation can vary by embassy. Some users report that this 500k needs to be consistent every month, while others have successfully used bank statements showing the amount on a specific date. The official guidelines generally specify maintaining the amount over a period of three months. However, experiences differ among applicants based on the specific embassy handling the application.
