I’m applying for a dtv visa and know I can’t get a Thai bank account so has anyone information on any pre paid cards I can use while out in Thailand. I won’t use the atm so looking for another way?

Has anyone in Jakarta applied for the DTV visa using a Wise or Revolut account? How did it go, and what was your experience like?

Those whose bank accounts were closed, what are your alternatives?

Regarding bank accounts, has anyone used a Revolut to prove funds for application? I do bank with santander but have savings in the Revolut

I just want the application as easy as possible and obviously not to be rejected

DTV via Thai Embassy in UK: Does anyone know if they accept bank statements from Revolut? Thanks.

Hi everyone! I just wanted to ask if having 500k spread across three bank accounts is acceptable when applying for the DTV. My savings are split between THB and EUR on Revolut, and my local currency in a domestic bank account—so overall, three different currencies across two banks. I’ll probably apply in Ho Chi Minh.

I could consolidate everything into THB on Revolut, but it would take a few days and I’d prefer to avoid the fees and exchange rate losses. Any advice?

Hello there, asking for advice regarding money transfers to the EU (Austria). I have been sending money to my daughter (just small amounts, less than EUR 800 every other month) via Western Union without any problems. Last Thursday they suddenly declined and asked me to fill in a document requiring the birth certificate of my daughter, my pension certificate and what not. I find that a bit too much, especially given the fact that they accept payments into Thailand without much ado. Anybody knows a way around or a better option to send money to the EU? My bank, Krungsri, is asking horrendous fees.

Hi everyone,

Could anyone confirm if Revolut bank statements are acceptable for the ฿500k equivalent? I will be applying in HCMC mid May.

Thanks for your support.

Hi all.. i need a little help from ex pats from uk.

Im currently in the uk , travelling on 9th may to basically spend most of my time in thailand on a marriage visa, my marriage visa just expired, so i have to re apply, no problem there.

The issue i have is my bank, santander, theyve gave me a nightmare whilst in thailand the last year. Theyre telling me i have to report to them every 90 days, they actually froze my account last year and i dont want the same hassle i had again.

So im asking if anyone can recommend a bank in the uk i can use, fully closing my santander accounts.

Thank you. Ray

Can you use Revolut or WISE account statment as evidence of the 500k?
