Why so many questions about money on your account?

If not have enough money why stay here. Of course they want to know if you can support yourself in the future. Same in my homecountry. They don’t want to pay for hospital bills for emergency cost (just to make you stay alive) and don’t get paid for it.

You need at least 1,5 million Baht saved to have a decent life regardless what hospital insurance you have.

If not, life can be not as good as you think here in Thailand.

Maybe i am wrong, but I see “Farang” come here without savings and life can get really bad if you get sick or meet the wrong lady

Is the 500k the ending balance they check? Or the daily balance of 500k for the 3 months?

Hello,

I am planning to go to Penang or Kuala Lumpur to get a non O visa based on marriage after one year of staying here on visa extempts. Anybody knows if the required 400k can be shown in my Revolut account or does it need to be in a traditionl bank ?

Hi everyone 😊

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with getting a DTV approved using only around 8 weeks of bank statements?

We’ve recently sold our house, so we do have more than the required funds available, but they’re not all shown across a long statement history.

Has anyone been approved in a similar situation, or did they ask for more documentation?

Would really appreciate any insight or experiences, thank you so much in advance! 🙏

Today I had an interview in Jakarta. I flew from Bali to Jakarta, and I don’t know yet if I will be approved. I have already shown my monthly income as a digital nomad, my business certificate in Bali, and some of my passive income in Bali. I have been renting a condo in Bangkok for one year, and even though I am currently in Indonesia, I still pay 22,000 Baht per month.

I didn’t know about the DTV visa before. I had been in Bangkok for one month in December, then returned in January. Immigration told me that if I didn’t get the visa, I wouldn’t be allowed to enter Bangkok again.

I have a business in Bali and I always circulate my money. But during the interview, they focused only on the 300,000 Baht I had in January. They seemed not to consider the 800,000 Baht I had over the last six months. Then they asked me to open my accounts. I didn’t expect them to focus so much on the 500,000 Baht. I only showed two accounts, not including my savings. I don’t understand why they are like this.

Now I’m just waiting for the result. I feel quite sad because I don’t understand why they focus on the 500,000 Baht from January. I applied in March with three accounts, totaling 500,000 Baht.

I still don’t know whether I will be approved or not

Hi all

My plan in 2 years was to retire on a none o visa .

I was planning on using the 65,000 thb per month , however I have been informed today that this is NOT possible until you are making your 1 year renewal !

I was informed that I would first need the 800,000 thb in a Thai bank for 1 year , then after this I could change to the 65000 thb .

Is this the case or can I use the 65,000 from the start ?

Thanks

Hello. I applied for a DTV early january so I got a few days before my application is getting closed.

My business is in the UAE. I have a German passport.

This is what was requested from me:

An employment contract or a company based in a country outside of Germany: The submitted documents must be legalized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Thai Embassy in the country where they were issued (in your case, in the UAE).

I have a trade license and company formation papers but it seems like extra steps are required, documents have to be legalized. Did anyone here go through the DTV process with a setup in Dubai?

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! 😊

Sharing our successful DTV workation case for me and my spouse.

We are currently based in Bulgaria, so our applications were processed by the embassy in Bucharest.

I applied late in the evening on March 7 and received approval on March 12.

My documents were quite standard - employment contract, proof of accommodation, and bank statements.

I have accounts in three different currencies within the same bank, with a total balance slightly above the equivalent of 500,000 THB. Part of the funds was deposited just a few days before applying - no questions were asked.

I provided bank statements for all accounts for the last 3 months. Additionally, I included a 6-month statement from my salary account to confirm a stable source of income.

My husband applied as a dependent spouse on March 16 and got approved today, March 27.

We submitted our marriage certificate along with an official English translation.

I also wrote a sponsor letter confirming that I will cover all his expenses.

My husband does have his own income - we mentioned his employer and income details, but did not attach his contract.

The bank statements were mine (the same ones I used for my application).

We didn’t receive any additional requests or questions from the embassy - everything went smoothly and quite fast.

Big thanks to everyone who shared their experiences here - it really helped a lot 🙏

Hello,

Is it possible to show more than one bank account to prove that the total amount exceeds 500,000 baht, or should I put all the money into a single account? I would love to hear advice from someone who has experience with this.

Thank you!
