If I am sponsoring my spouse and had well above the $$ needed in my account, plus showed a high monthly income, why did their dtv come back wanting them to have $ too? Spouse has no independent earnings beyond ssdi and not much in bank.

They want a sponsor letter for my spouse. Is this acceptable? Ai says it should but I’d rather hear from someone who submitted and received dependent visa!

Question About Financial Evidence for DTV

Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I’m currently preparing my financial evidence for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) application, and I wanted to clarify something.

The requirement is to show an amount of at least 500,000 THB, and I understand this can be done through bank statements or a sponsorship letter.

However, I have investments in a bank account. Even though these funds are not liquid, should I mention these investments in my bank statement as part of the financial evidence, or are only liquid funds required to be shown?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I’m looking for advice on applications through the Canberra (Australia) consulate.

I have tried ringing and emailing multiple times without a satisfactory answer.

I’m hoping someone here can help.

My husband wants to apply for DTV in May. We keep our savings in 3 different bank accounts in two different banks.

I was wondering if the Canberra consulate requires the 3-6 months bank statements to show that the 500k has been sitting in one account or if we can transfer the equivalent of 500k into one account and then just provide a proof of current balance for the day the application is submitted?

Also, as dependents, is a sponsorship letter for myself and my kids sufficient or do we need to show proof of additional funds in bank accounts?

Thanks so much 🙏

What is the feedback of recent DTV E–Visa applications submitted at the Thai Embassy in Manila?

Are there any seasoning of funds (minimum time period) requirements for the 500k for DTV E–Visa applications at Manila?

Is only submitting a Sponsorship/Guarantee Letter by the Primary DTV Visa Holder sufficient or does the Thai Embassy request recent Bank Statements of the Primary DTV Visa holder?

This is the most recent E–Visa Guidelines released from the Thai Embassy in Manila, dated 5 March 2025

Hello, what are requirement for dependant persons on DTV (wife and kid) ? Do they also need to show bank account (for each person) or it’s required only for the main DTV holder ?

When submitting with a sponsor, in addition to a sponsorship letter and bank statements is anything else required? Should I include a copy of their passport or ID?
