Will a temporary drop in my bank balance affect my DTV application in Thailand?
I'm looking to apply for the DTV within the next couple of months, My bank balance dropped below the 500k thb threshold for a week down to 460k thb, but will now remain above it (by a considerable amount) until I actually apply. Will this have an impact on my application?
I actually haver a different account with a positive balance that would more than cover the period it dropped, would this be able to be taken into account?

Answer summary
The user inquired about the impact of a temporary drop in their bank balance below the 500k THB threshold on their upcoming DTV visa application. Community responses indicated that it is possible to use two different bank accounts for the visa application, and that some embassies primarily focus on the final balance rather than historical balances. Users pointed out that some Thai embassies, like the one in London, may have specific requirements regarding how long the balance must remain above 500k THB. Overall, maintaining a positive final balance and having documentation ready from both accounts could help support the application.

Where are you applying? Some embassies focus on the final balance others want a consistent balance of 500k. You can apply with both accounts.

So you are ok, London focuses on the final balance. Some have been recently asked to show a balance of 500k for 10 days but you are ok with that.Andi ***********
@Amy *****
Basically, embassies in Europe/America are ok with just the final balance. Vietnam, Taipei in Asia. Jakarta, Manilla used to be ok with just the final balance but i do not know about recent requirements.
