I have 300,000THB in my bank and I am doing the other 200,000 THB letter of sponsorship from my mum!

Anyone got any tips? Anything in particular to say? I’ve asked chat GBT to help me write a letter and I’ve got her bank statement and the letter is worded well and is formal

It’s got way more than 300,000 in it so hoping we won’t have any issues or delays 😅 I’ve not spoken to anyone who has done a sponsorship letter

Can my girlfriend (not married) get a soft-power DTV if I have 500k THB on my bank account but not on her bank account?

UPDATE: we've had to go sponsor route. Even more document requirements.

Does anyone know time frame you have to upload the additional documents requested? It will take me 2 weeks to get one of the docs. Thank you!

If you fly out of Thailand before your non-O visa expires (based on husband's non-b visa) then enter again as a tourist. Would you be able to apply for a new non-o visa through a new sponsor (based on mother's non-b visa) without the cancellation stamp in your passport from your previous sponsor? Fyi, sponsors visa are from different immigration offices.

Report from Manila. Successful DTV application.

This is quite an unusual application I guess so thought to share.

I got my DTV from London about a month ago, I'm a UK citizen. My partner is from Philippines, she has just been granted a DTV too, application in Manila.

We are not married, and she has not got the funds in her account. I wrote a sponsorship letter and provided proof of our relationship (3 years, lots of photographs and history of communication). Both on soft power (cooking class in Chiang Mai), also sent lots of evidence of my time in Philippines (passport stamps), and copies of my finances.

Approved in 6 working days after request for some secondary info (not complicated).

Any questions then fire away. I'm happy to answer anything if it will help other people.

I'm looking to bring my partners niece to England for a 2 month holiday.

Roughly how long does the process take?

I know that might be like asking 'how long is a piece of string' but maybe someone who has gone through the process could give me a rough idea?

And what is the starting point?

The UK or Thai Embassy?

Thanks

I applied for soft power. After about 2 weeks of document check pending status, they requested more documents. One was employment letter, I don't know what that has to do with soft power? I work freelance so can't really provide this anyways. The other requested document was bank statement, which I already provided that was well over 500k. Not sure what to do next.

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to apply for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) at the Thai Embassy in Jakarta.

Does anyone know if they accept sponsorship for the financial requirement?

Specifically, can I use my father’s bank statement together with a sponsorship letter and proof of relationship, instead of my own bank statement?

If you’ve done this or know someone who has, please share your experience.

Thanks in advance!

I have a question for the “sponsorship” part of the application if we choose to go that route, will be handling my girlfriends DTV visa and does the 500k baht need to be from her account? Or can i sponsor her showing proof of funds in my account? We are not married. Im guessing its a long shot but just curious to hear if anyone has gone this route

Officially from Ho chi minh in Vietnam for DTV Workcation, the information I read says we can use a sponsor for the 500k bhat in account.

After paying for the application they have stated that a sponsor is not allowed, and the funds need to be shown in my account for a minimum of 6 months.

Can anyone clarify why the sponsor cannot be accepted when everywhere I've looked it seemed a legitimate path?

Is this a glitch in the system? Did the rules change?
