Hey guys! My history of transactions of the last 6 months from Revolut, is super long, like over 100 pages, a lot of small transactions like grabs etc, is it ok to upload that? Thanks

When submitting bank statements. Are people blanking out the non related purchases etc. / editing them. Or submitting complete bank statements untouched?

Example. Blacking out non related transactions.

🙏🏻

Did anyone deal with translating their bank statement? Mine is in german and banks at home make it so difficult to translate 🫩

TIA for any advice 🙏🏼

the minimum for soft power is 500k baht, but some people say that is not enough to apply and that youll still need proof of income.

i wont have steady income at the time i apply but i do plan on getting remote work once i settle in. should i mention this if the embassy asks how ill sustain myself? whats the best way to go about it?

Has anyone here had success going in person to the Embassy in Hanoi to clarify or fix an issue with their DTV application?

I got an email asking for more documents

It says ‘ not enough money ‘

but I already submitted 3 months showing over £11,000 (which is above 500,000 THB).

I’m confused to what they’re asking - has anyone experienced this please

Non o

Going to apply from Vietnam in October for Married non immigrant o. For financials was going to supply my bank records from America showing income and stability, I can’t get an account opened here.

Will Thai embassy require the statements to be translated?

I’m interested how someone else interprets this response for my application question on amount of months seasoned the 500k needs for DTV HCMC consulate… I see it as only the final balance needs to be 500k.?

Please submit your transactions latest 6 months in your bank account and ensure your closing balance not less than 500,000 Baht. (it can be from any bank, in any currency)

What are your thoughts on covering the account number (except the last 4 digits) on the bank statements? I hate putting my full account number out into the world.

DTV (Cooking Class)

Approved in 4 Working Days

Submitted: 4 July evening,

Approved: 10 July afternoon

Location: Hanoi Thai Consulate

Hanoi is still fair & efficient.

1-500,000 THB settled for 5 weeks (SGD bank statement with a short explanation for why I used it)

2-Financial Declaration Letter explaining support from my husband

3-Submitted 6-month bank statements from my husband’s account.

Got through BKK airport from Hanoi. First time using DTV (Workcation/Freelance) which I got from Hanoi on July 8. (Please see my application documents below)

Burmese (Myanmar) passport, with last two years of Thai language school visa history.

IO looked at my small (A6 size) print of DTV visa and asked "You work here?". I said "No, I worked only online for my organization in Myanmar". She nodded and scanned the visa. Then she flipped through my passport, took some time looking at my ED visa stamps but didn't ask anything. Then she stamped on the empty page.

Applied in Hanoi on July 2 (3:35 pm) - approved on July 8 (3:21 pm). 4 working days, no additional documents asked.

Application documents I submitted:

Workcation/Freelance docs:

- Cover Letter

- Freelance Translator (English - Burmese) Portfolio

- 2 Freelance contracts (I don't actually have contracts so I draft them up based on the work with 2 of my regular clients)

- 6 Invoices for the last six months

- Statement of Burmese bank account where I highlighted the incoming transactions matching the invoices (on average the monthly income I showed is less than 20K if converted to baht which I was a bit worried might be too low, but apparently it was fine)

Financial proof:

- 6 months bank statement with each month closing at 500,000 + baht (I used my Thai bank account for this - I have opened one with my ED visa two years ago)

- Bank certificate certifying that I have *,* in my account (my friend who was helping me with the prep suggested I get this so I did)

Location:

- all passport pages including the arrival stamp

- flight boarding pass

- hotel booking

And then, four working days (or six days cause I couldn't manage to apply till a Wednesday) later, approved.

Hope they're clear. Please ask if you have any questions.

This page has been a huge help to me. I wish everyone applying good luck too. Cheers, everyone.
