Hi everyone,

Is it recommended to submit a savings account, without any transactions at all, ans with 19k USD on it for the last three months as proof of the 500k requirement?

The money is accessible all the time.

Thanks

Am I right in interpreting this as saying £11,000 per adult needs to be held in savings? So if adult is on dependent visa, they still need to have £11,000 in addition to the main applicant?

Email from Thai Immigration (UK)

Regarding the DTV for dependents, sponsorship letter is reserved for children under 16 years old only. Dependents under 16 years old are allowed to submit parents' bank statement with the minimum closing balance of £11,000. Please submit the bank statement along with a sponsorship letter from the parent who is the main DTV applicant, his/her passport biodata page, official proof of relationship, and parents' proof of current location (utility bills or a driving license). On the other hand, applicants over 16 years are required to submit their personal financial evidence, showing their name, address, and a minimum closing balance as required by the visa they are applying for.

For further information regarding the DTV requirements, please refer to the details in the email sent on 23 April 2026.

We would appreciate your understanding.

Warm regards,

Good day everyone.

I've just been approved for a non o retirement visa. I applied in the UK. My Thai wife is with me. We are planning to return to Thailand late May.

What are the next steps I need to do to get the 12 months extension. Do I need to go to the British embassy? Do I need to get my passport translated?

Please explain to me in simple terms please. TIA

I want to apply for a marriage visa what is the best process and once granted can you leave Thailand and return for say a month or so

Is the 500k the ending balance they check? Or the daily balance of 500k for the 3 months?

Hey guys. Has anyone gone through the DTV from Pakistan? I work for clients from the USA, UK, Canada etc. since quite a while now.

Considering applying for it in a few months, would appreciate if someone could share their experience throughout the process.

Thank you!

Hello everybody,

I am applying for my DTV in Hanoi right now. I am going the soft power route with a cooking class. I have no online income but do have bankstatements that reach the requierments and a sponsorship letter from my parents that will support me with a monthly budget. I also do work in Germany as a freelance socialworker from time to time, but I do that like once a year to save up money for the rest of the year (wouldnt want to show proof for that income, because back then I didn't meet the financial savings requirements if that would be a problem). What is the best way of putting this information into the online application for the DTV Visa? Do I put in my freelance status if I am currently not working and my last pay was months ago? Where do I attatch my sponsorship letter to proof I can financially sustain myself? Any answer would be highly appreciated

I am going to apply for DTV to study Thai. When I confirm my money balance of bath 500.000 can that be the total of savings and thre monthly incomes?

Hi

Just need to pick some brains, probably been asked lots of times but...

So myself and husband are applying for the non o visa and the question is that our money is not in a current account its in an ISA account, is that ok or does it need to be in a current account and if so can I transfer the money back into the current from the ISA or does it have to have been in that account for 3mths? Also how the hell do you upload 3mths of statements or am I over thinking this.

Thanks for any help
