I currently own a share of a business while living and working in the marketing field in Thailand with a non-immigrant B visa and work permit till May 25. I want to relinquish my share of the company, stop my current visa, re-enter on a DTV, and then go full-time remote online marketing for clients back in the UK.

I have a portfolio of work and the 500k in funds available, but the only thing I worry about is my previous month's bank statements, as not much has been happening in my English accounts, and most of my money has been via cash in Thailand. for example, my 500k would be easiest shown if I could place the cash into my current Thai bank account and show it this way. Has anybody had any experience with similar?

Any help will be appreciated.
Answer summary
The user seeks advice on transitioning from a non-immigrant B visa while owning a share in a company in Thailand to a DTV visa to work remotely for UK clients. They express concern about their financial documentation, specifically the need to demonstrate sufficient funds while their English bank statements show minimal activity. Community feedback suggests that showing 500k THB in a Thai account without detailed income history may suffice, emphasizing the importance of having sufficient funds and not engaging in local employment.

I think for them the most important is :

1/ you have money and/or income to take care of yourself in thailand

2/ you don't work in thailand ( for thailand economics -> only remote), if you previously worked in thailand and want start work remote .. I guess they will check your folder twice...

I wouldn’t worry too much about the current account income as they really don’t ask for that (well, maybe some embassies do??).

Just put the money in the Thai account and use that. Why not?
