Any suggestions can help!!!

I’m having a hard time with my 500.000 bht founds In my bank account let me explain.

- April 24 2026 I put in a Swiss saving bank account 12200 fr. At the time equivalent of 510.000 bht

- money stayed in my account until today ( more than 3 months)

- a week ago I was about to apply for DTV and for my surprise 2 days prior the Swiss franc lost economical power, since last week my 12200 fr are equal to 496.561 bht

- since April 24 to August 5 I had 12200fr equal to 500.000 bht in my bank account but today my money worth less than 500.000.

I really need to apply for DTV as soon as possible but ofcours I would be rejected for insufficient funds since the change is not in my favour at the moment.

If you would be in my position what would you do?

I think about to wait that the Swiss franc regain the usual power and my money goes back to stabilising in 500.000 bht of value and then apply.

If I add the amount needed for reach 500.000 bht now it would count as I always had 500.000 bht? Or the count of time would start from zero?

If you have a similar experience or any suggestions about my situation please leave a comment I really need your help.

Thank you. 🙏🏼
Answer summary
The user is facing a challenge with their Thai DTV visa application due to the devaluation of their Swiss Franc savings, now below the required 500,000 THB. Despite holding sufficient funds for over three months, recent exchange rate changes threaten their eligibility. Community members suggest adding a buffer to ensure compliance with visa requirements, verify embassy-specific currency conversion rates, and consider contacting the embassy directly to clarify how recent deposits affect their application. Overall, the consensus emphasizes the need for stability in funds and caution regarding potential embassy rejection.
