I can’t believe I’m still confused after so much reading and inquiring. I’m in the USA and planning to apply online for a 90-day non O “retirement” visa.

I thought there were no “bank account” requirements to accomplish this first step. I understand the 800,000 baht seasoned for two months in a Thai account for LATER but if proof of funds IS required just to get the non O visa can somebody please clarify that for me? Yes, I can research elsewhere but I prefer hearing the details from people who really know the facts. Thanks.

Hello.

I was wondering if anyone knows if it is ok to use two different bank accounts for proof of funds when applying for dtv visa?

Hi everyone . I have a valid DTV visa and will be leaving Thailand and re-entering by land soon.

Last time I re-entered by plane, immigration didn’t ask for anything other than my DTV visa. It was quick and smooth.

This time, since I’ll be entering via a land border (VIA Padang Besar, Malaysia) I just wanted to ask:

Has anyone ever been asked to show proof of funds when re-entering with a valid DTV visa?

And if so, would a brokerage investment account be accepted, or does it need to be a traditional bank account, like what was required for the initial application?

Thanks for any firsthand experience or advice!

Any Aussies in here who've applied for the DTV via Sydney Thai consulate? I'm just wondering what they accept as proof of 500k baht since it seems to differ between embassies? thank you!

(Also, what doc did you use for showing location?)

Once I leave after my first 6 months on my DTV and come back do I still need to have proof of 500,000 baht in liquid bank account again when i re enter for the next 6 months? I keep majority of my funds in an Individual Brokerage Account so that I’m gaining interest. I’d prefer not to hold that much in a standard checking or savings account.h

Hi, I have a question about the DTV visa. When providing necessary documents (proof of owning a business, proof of funds etc.) - do you need a notary translation? Do you provide originals? My native language is NOT english, obviously. Thanks!

Just read this and thought useful for some who deal with Bangkok Bank

Bangkok bank told us that since 1 July, they require you to have the money in your account for 4 months (!!), before they can issue a letter that confirms proof of funds for various visas. And if you do not meet this 4 month requirement, they will lock the funds in your account for an additional 4 months, before you can access it; while giving you the right papers that you need for immigration (proof of funds for 2 months). Its not an immigration or visa requirement, but rather a banking requirement to deter money laundering and people using agents (that is what they told us)

For the soft power option

So long as you prove you have 500k bhat, what are the requirements for income proof? Do you need to be making a certain amount?

Hi , I’m planning to apply for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) from Pakistan. I hold a Wise account with over £12,000 maintained in GBP for the past year.

Can I use my Wise bank statement as valid proof of funds ?

Hi everyone, my friend is doing a DTV application in Indonesia but doesn't have Facebook. Couple of questions:

1.⁠ ⁠Does anyone know how long the Indo consulate requires the money to be in the bank account?

2. Has anyone used company bank accounts documents as proof of funds? He can prove that he is the owner of the company

Thanks in advance
