Hello everyone,

I am a bit stuck on a technical beaurocracy and would appreciate your help.

I would like to apply for a soft power DTV, but regarding the financial requirements, the 500k is currently in an investment account and not a bank savings account.

I contacted the embassy in Taipei asking if it will suffice, and while they did not give me a clear "no", they said a savings account is preferable.

Now I'm debating whether to go ahead with it, or transfer the cash to a savings account and delay application by 3 months.

I would love to hear your opinions. Thanks in advance everyone

When applying for a soft power DTV would a statement from a brokerage account (JP Morgan) work or does it need to be a savings account or checking account?

Asking on behalf: if you don’t renew your retirement visa, will the bank close your savings account if they know about it?

Quick question people, can i use my Investment Portfolio over having the funds within your savings account?

My problem is I have fixed deposit and saving under same statement.

Combination of two amounts could meet minimum requirement for DTV application.

Will they combine these two amounts or I shall withdraw my fixed deposits to saving ? 🥲

Hello all, i would like to submit my application for dtv visa. I have found a muay thai school which provides paper but i have some doubts regarding the financial proof. Is it ok if my money are on saving account? And i would bring all my family with me: my wife and 2 children. Does it means on my bank account i should have 2 m bath?

Thanks

Hi all,

Regarding the marriage visa B400k bank account balance requirement, does anyone know if this can be satisfied by a CD/time deposit account? Or does the money strictly have to be in a traditional checking or savings account?

Krungsri appears to have a very favorable 4yr CD rate that's also available to foreigners, so I'd much prefer my money not excessively depreciate in value if it has to sit somewhere for this.

Thanks in advance!

Can we open account in Thailand with DTV visa?

Hi all. Looking for some updated advice as it seems things have changed a bit from what I have read online.

I am currently 5 days into my 60 day Tourist Visa and I would like to open a Thai Baht Savings Account as a Foreigner.

Yesterday in Pattaya Central I tried Krungsri and Kasikorn and received a hard no. Bangkok bank however will open an account for me if I provide the info in the attached image.

I intend to live in Thailand legitimately so I will be able to meet all these requirements, however I have some questions:

'Citizen ID Card' what exactly do they mean by this?

'Residential Rental Contract for 1 Year'

Can anyone on here provide some information regarding a potential branch and/or manager of any main Bank in either the Pattaya or Buri Ram surrounding regions?

That is a little relaxed on this or these requirements?

OR

I have seen online you can pay an agent to assist in the opening of a bank account. Can anyone on here comment / recommend any particular agent / services that can assist in either completely bypassing these requirements or at least 'skip' the proof of residency requirements?

(I intend to get a condo but would like to take my time in doing so and was considering a shorter commitment than 12 months)

Any and all accurate advice / information is appreciated 🙏

I have given bank statement,

But It's not my salary account & i Didn't give salary statement

Is it a problem for getting thai tourist visa?

(My all documents are ok & i have existing Indian visa in my passport)
