What is the process for applying for a Thai visa for children as dependents?

Question

Has anyone applied WITH children??? If so, what was that experience like? Seems like info overload.

Ask Thailand · Answer

Applying for a Thai dependent visa (DTV) for children typically involves obtaining the primary DTV visa first. Required documents include the children's birth certificates, a family certificate, a sponsorship letter, and a bank statement. Experiences shared by users indicate that the application process is generally straightforward if all paperwork is prepared. However, applicants should clarify financial proof requirements with their respective embassies, as discrepancies regarding necessary funds per person versus the primary DTV holder have been noted. Timelines for processing can vary, but some users reported approvals within 24 hours.

We are using the chicago embassy. Do they want proof of 15k per PERSON or for the primary DTV holder? I see so many conflicting reports on this

I applied for mine first in hcmc and then my 2 kids in taipei a few months later. Paperwork wise it's rather simple, my only hiccup was taipei wanted to know why I didn't apply for theirs in hcmc like mine. I said we were on holidays in taipei so I decided to get it done there. 500k bank statement for both, a sponsor letter stating you'll cover their expenses.

Because you need your dtv approved first before applying for your kids, do factor in a couple of weeks overseas.

We did this in London. Super simple and processed within 24 hours.

Get your DTV first as you have to add the visa number onto the dependant’s application form.

Upload their photo and passport and  your bank statement (can be the same you used for your DTV) PLUS their birth certificate and a brief letter saying you will cover their costs while they are in Thailand.

We are starting the process now. As long as you have all the paperwork it seems pretty straightforward but I’ve heard some conflicting stories. I would also love to hear a first hand account of someone that has completed the process for dependent on DTV.
