Any Aussies in here who've applied for the DTV via Sydney Thai consulate? I'm just wondering what they accept as proof of 500k baht since it seems to differ between embassies? thank you!

(Also, what doc did you use for showing location?)

Hey all working with Baan Thai for a retirement O stateside. Doing the 3 month initial visa. They’ve asked that I provide my U.S. bank statements for the past 3 months showing 80,000 baht balance. I know this is a requirement once I get a bank account in Thailand. Has anyone had the request to show the same from a U.S. bank?

Hi, I have a question about the DTV visa. When providing necessary documents (proof of owning a business, proof of funds etc.) - do you need a notary translation? Do you provide originals? My native language is NOT english, obviously. Thanks!

Just read this and thought useful for some who deal with Bangkok Bank

Bangkok bank told us that since 1 July, they require you to have the money in your account for 4 months (!!), before they can issue a letter that confirms proof of funds for various visas. And if you do not meet this 4 month requirement, they will lock the funds in your account for an additional 4 months, before you can access it; while giving you the right papers that you need for immigration (proof of funds for 2 months). Its not an immigration or visa requirement, but rather a banking requirement to deter money laundering and people using agents (that is what they told us)

For the soft power option

So long as you prove you have 500k bhat, what are the requirements for income proof? Do you need to be making a certain amount?

Hi , I’m planning to apply for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) from Pakistan. I hold a Wise account with over £12,000 maintained in GBP for the past year.

Can I use my Wise bank statement as valid proof of funds ?

Hi everyone, my friend is doing a DTV application in Indonesia but doesn't have Facebook. Couple of questions:

1.⁠ ⁠Does anyone know how long the Indo consulate requires the money to be in the bank account?

2. Has anyone used company bank accounts documents as proof of funds? He can prove that he is the owner of the company

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, thank you so much — your posts have been incredibly helpful and I really appreciate this community! 🙏

I have a question about the financial documents for the DTV application. I'm planning to apply from Taiwan.

I currently have the following:

* 5 million JPY in a fixed deposit account (fully liquid, I can withdraw it anytime). This is approximately 1.1 million THB.

* 500,000 JPY in a regular bank account, which is about 110,000 THB.

I read from previous posts that PayPal is not accepted, so I’m not planning to submit that.

However, most of my income in the past year has been received through PayPal, and I haven’t been transferring it to my bank account regularly.

This is because the Japanese yen has dropped significantly in value, and my Japanese bank requires me to convert the funds into JPY when withdrawing from PayPal, which I’m trying to avoid.

So, while I have enough income and transaction history in PayPal to prove financial stability, I understand this might not be valid for DTV.

Just to confirm: would income shown in PayPal still count if not withdrawn into a bank account?

Also, regarding the fixed deposit — I know it’s liquid and accessible, but can it be used as valid financial proof for the DTV?

I run my own business and do not have any income from Thailand, so I believe I meet the other criteria.

But I’m a bit unsure about whether my current documents for proof of funds and income are acceptable when applying in Taiwan.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! 🙏
