ORIGINAL POSTERDid anyone did the same? What information you put? Should I also add the bank statement? Did the visa went through with no problems?
I have everything, contract with a company, the invoices with the payments each month. And just this little thing now.
Iโm applying from Argentina and Iโve asked to the embassy but they are not very helpful with the reply, Iโve asked the same and they only said, a sponsor letter is a letter saying someone can take care of me ๐
Thanks ๐

baht then you can take the risk. Most of embassies want to see the money sitting in the bank under your name, some even want them to sit in your account for several months before applying. That's one of the requirements they care the most, some folks who had investments, stocks and crypto for showing over 6 figures got denied for the reason I mentioned aboveSami *********
@Michael *********
hi ! Please Do you know which embassy in which city does not require seasoning for the 500k? I just put them in and I'm applying in a few days and the 10,000k is not refundable if the application is refused?Michael **********
@Sami ********
no, 10k is NEVER refundable for whatever reason. ALL the embassies require 500k, that's probably the strictest things they care about. There is no embassy that will accept a dtv without 500k.Sami *********
@Michael *********
Yes, I have the 500k baht in my account, but only since now. I just put them in. So can they accept it or will they ask me to have them for 3 or 6 months?Michael **********
@Sami ********
well, in that case depends on the embassy. if you had *******
and you made it up to 500k recently then it's ok. If you went from *****
k to 500k the other day then I suggest you to wait for a few weeks cuz it'd sound very suspeciousSami *********
@Michael *********
I didn't have much, I had them in crypto so I just put them in. But unfortunately I can't wait any longer, I'm coming to the end of my exemptions. Tell me which embassy do you think I'll have the best luck in. Vietnam? Indonesia?Michael **********
@Sami ********
I know that taipei and the filippines could be ok with that but if you apply for soft powers then don't go to taipei. And bear in mind that you are still gambling, they might ask to see your account and/or request and interview and having a lot of money going there just few days prior the application could be a red flagSami *********
@Michael *********
Thanks for your valuable info. Iโm actually applying through the Soft Power Muay Thai category, so Iโll forget about Taipei. Iโm going to Kuala Lumpur in a few days, but Iโve been told itโs strict, so Iโm not sure where to applyโฆJulian **********
@Sami ********
Please keep us posted. I topped up my account from 50k to 500k last week. 60 day exemption expires June 1st. Will try another border run for the money to season 3 months. If I am not allowed re-entry, I will see if / where I can apply with bank statement only ~6 weeks with 500kReply to

what kind of investments/stocks were that exactly?James ********
@Paula ***********
They want to see CASH in a bank account in your name only.Michael **********
@Paula ***********
you can do a research on this page, I forgot about it. I just remember that those who have shown crypto, stocks and investements they've often gold denied cuz the embassies just want to see the cash in you bank account. Sometimes they even complained cuz the cash was split in 2 different accounts even tho it still was over 500k in total...Paula ************
@Michael *********
Thank you so much! Maybe it's a language barrier thing but is a stock not like cash? ๐๐
If the money is on a banks saving account is that a stock?Jon **********
@Paula ***********
No, a stock is a share in a company. They have value but they are not cash assets until you sell them.Paula ************
@Jon *********
thank you so much! This helps a lot. So money on a bank saving account can be counted for the 500k too right? Just to make sure as I think it's very important for applying ๐๐Reply to

Who is your sponsor? That is a critical relationship the embassy will want to know
