TLDR : Answer Summary
The post outlines a detailed timeline and document list for obtaining a Thai DTV (Digital Nomad Visa). The author submitted their application on October 8th and received approval on October 15th. Initially, three months of bank statements and two client contracts were submitted along with a professional portfolio and a passport photo. They later received a request for additional documentation, leading to a resubmission of six months of bank statements and proof of location.

I wrote to the Thai Embassy in Delhi about the DTV. They replied that they were only granting to Indian nationals. I could apply if I liked but would most likely be declined

What I want to know is, did your bank statement have an amount equal to 500,000 baht for the past 6 months? Because I'm worried about this a bank case.
Andi ***********
@Zwe *********
You need 6 months statements and a ending balance of 500k THB for Vietnam. Not need 500K for every month of the 6mths.
Zwe **********
@Andi **********
yes..plan to apply in Dec at HCM. So I am just asking a lot of questions.
Andi ***********
@Zwe *********
Ok that is fine, if applying in person like Laos they may ask to see the latest balance on your mobile app
Zwe **********
@Andi **********
thank your for your information 😊
Claire ********
@Andi **********
So I could transfer my 500k now and would be ok for my application (which I plan to do January)?
Andi ***********
@Claire *******
Yes but include 6 months statements. Your application approval will be delayed without the 6mths statements. Recent posts show applicants were requested to resubmit 3+ more monthly statements.
Zwe **********
@Andi **********
I just want to ask about the bank statement. If I apply in December, can they count the December bank statement as 6 months? Because My bank opened in July. I want to apply on December 9.Can December be considered 6 months?
Andi ***********
@Zwe *********
Yes that is fine.
Zwe **********
@Andi **********
I understand. Thanks.
Claire ********
@Andi **********
perfect, thank you
