I am a professional seafarer. My salary is paid to a ShipMoney corporate account (VISA/MasterCard issuer). Does the Consulate accept ShipMoney bank statements for DTV visa application if the balance is over 500,000 THB?"

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user, a professional seafarer, inquired if ShipMoney bank statements showing a balance over 500,000 THB would be accepted for a DTV visa application. However, the comments suggest skepticism about the qualifications, indicating that unconventional payment methods may not be accepted, and that maritime work does not typically meet DTV application criteria.

I don't think being a person who spends a lot of time out to sea will qualify you for a DTV.

Probably not. Anything that is out of the ordinary generally does not qualify
