Hi everyone, so I have a quick question I’m coming in on my dtv visa for the first time. It got approved while I was on my visa exemption so I’m going back and coming back in on it. I wanted to ask though what do you show when you come in. I’m worried about the bank stuff I had enough when I applied but had to pay my security deposit for my rental and my sons Tution it will be built up again in a couple of months but I’m worried if they ask to see bank statements or not when you come in.

Hi. I will be applying for DTV next week, how do I prove that I am in the UK ? I returned from Thailand in April and passport control did not stamp my passport. I think I have everything else covered 🙏 thank you in advance for your support. And anything else that can trip me up ?

Hi everyone, I am having issues about my bank statement with Hanoi embassy.

I want to use my "Livret A" saving account (french account) that exceeds the 500k thb required for more than a year. The issue is I did not make any transfer since end of april. So when my bank edit for me my bank statement, there is nothing to show after this date.

Even if my bank stated at the end of the document "We, *bank name*, certify the absence of transactions on savings account No. xxxxxxxx from 30 April 2025 to this day, 06 August 2025.", the thai embassy sent me the mail today required "Updated bank statement from May to present."

I am a bit lost, I do not know what to do, if someone can help me please.

I took a screenshot of my livret A web page, my bank also sent me the listing of all my account with the balance every end of month from end of february until end of july. I also plan to send an eglish+thai letter to explain everything about the different documents and I hope it will be enough.

I also asked my bank to stamp and sign the screenshot of my livret A web page if it can help too.

I really feel my application is legit, I have the money on my account for more than 2 years, it is just I cannot give the template of bank statement they want, because of my bank.

Thank you all for your help

Edit : This is what I sent to my bank, with a cover letter including this "At present, I hold 22,950 EUR in a Livret A savings account with Credit Agricole, which is equivalent to approximately 864,756 THB. The Livret A is a special government-supported savings account available in France, known for its safety, accessibility, offers tax-free interest, and high liquidity. I am able to withdraw and utilize these funds at any time for my daily expenses."

Hey guys, heading back soon and just want to check which printed documents (people who have been pulled up on) have you needed?

I’ve got bank statements

Printed DTV

And then will fill out my digital card within 3 days before arriving.

Anything else?

Thank you!

I have decided that for my 2nd retirement extension next year that I will use the 65,000 baht monthly deposit method. What I would like to know is what do you use for your reference number when you are using Wise for your monthly transfers? (the transfers are marked as international funds transfer already).

My second question is has anyone had any problems in the last month getting a full year print out and yearly bank letter from Bangkok Bank lately? Thank you.

Hey everyone, I’m thinking of applying for the DTV in Ho Chi Minh City soon and trying to get clarity on the financial proof requirement.

I’ve got more than 500,000 baht in GBP sitting in my UK bank account, but it’s only been there for a few weeks. Some places say it needs to have been sitting there for three months, others say it doesn’t matter.

Has anyone here applied in HCMC and got approved with less than three months of bank history?

I can also include a sponsorship letter from a parent with their bank statements and proof of relationship if needed, but I’d rather just use my own funds if possible.

Would really appreciate any recent experiences or advice. 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.

🙏🏻

Good evening, dear expats in Thailand.

I’m seeking some advice regarding the Digital Nomad (DTV) visa. I’ve been living in Thailand for almost 11 years, but recently I canceled my work visa and switched back to a tourist visa.

I’m planning to apply for the DTV visa in September, but I’m not sure where I can submit the application, since I’m already in Thailand.

As a Filipino citizen, which country would be the easiest or most convenient for me to apply from? I also have a Thai bank account and plan to use it for the required bank statement.

Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I’m an American citizen will be applying for my DTV Visa here in Cambodia. My question is is a statement or a letter from the bank showing my current balance would that be significant enough for the application? Also, how does it work if you’re married and have kids
