Does anyone have experience with applying for the DTV as a family?

I am interested to find out whether it's enough to have 500k in a bank account or if it has to be 500k per person.

If it has to be 500k per person, is it possible to use agents to circumvent this requirement? I am not keen on liquidating investments just for a visa application.

We would probably apply at the Thai embassy in Jakarta.

Hi, I'm asking if anybody got the DTV Visa with a sponsorship letter.. I have remote contract and start at September regular work as a projectmanager with very good salary.. Finally I can make my dream true to live in Thailand... I currently don't have the 500.000 baht at the moment as savings. Do you think it's possible with a sponsor who declares to give me the financial support? Thank you mike

I have a Filipina friend wanting to visit Thailand… She is a first time traveller outside her country, but she will have the 20.000 Bahts along with an Address of accommodations as well as the Return Ticket required -after her 60 or 90day stay as is the New Rules published on July 15th for the Tourist Visa Exemption Scheme for Philippines…

I did read a few articles on Sponsoring, but as a Foreign on long term visa here in the Kingdom, I am not even sure if that is an option although the Officer could check with a few clicks that the place of residence is a match to her Declaration as well as I been living here for over 10 years, so that could at the very least give Validity to her Declaration. Thanks in advance for your educated advice. Very much appreciated

Hi all, I have been in a relationship with a thai girl for 5 years now, and she would like to have a vacation in the UK in my country with me, she has her own home, but insists she has to have maybe 500,000 baht in her account, for her visa, would my sufficient savings not vouch for her, rather than loose interest on my assets, hope this is ok to post, and hopefully gain a bit of enlightenment, kind regards

I’m looking for advice / review of anybody who has recently got a non-b visa from a neighbouring country ? Not sure the protocol at the moment

just a minor trip report from the yangon embassy... i wanted a single-entry non-b as my foundation's registration is in process. i had:

- sponsorship letter from my law firm, explaining whats in process

- copy of my retainer for the law firm

- all the usual business docs from the law firm

- my cv

- my financial info

- my flight/hotel details

- $80 USD

i walked in at 10am, no one in front of me, the lady at the window was very nice, friendly, understood what i was asking for and said she'd quickly check with the consul to make sure everything was in order... and it was. she took everything i brought except my flight/hotel stuff.

picked my non-b up the next day. in and out quickly, if one wanted to return to bangkok same day on the myanmar international to bkk at 4:40, thats totally possible. all in all a good experience.
