Is there a time limit money needs to be in an account that you use for DTV application ?

How strict are they on any time limits from others experience?

Thanks in advance

applying at jakarta. at first i thought they required 3 months of bank statements but now that im looking at their website again, i dont see anywhere that says that.

does anyone have official information for how many statements we need for jakarta?

do they require the 500k baht to be in the account for 3 or more months, or does it matter as long as it's the final balance at the time of application?

Does anyone know if I have insurance in the US and it covers emergencies anywhere in the world if I would still have to buy insurance in Thailand on long term visa. Yes I would have to pay and they reimburse. Showing enough funds in bank account to cover the 3 million policy isn’t a a problem.

Thanks

Is your monthly about 90,000 baht?

Then, in your opinion...

Is using an agent to get non.O and open a bank account relatively expensive to you?

[US retired guy asking. ThanX in advance for your time]

AND Thank you for your responses.

Thought about it. I'll be 70 in November. I think I'll keep my house for a place to visit until I get tired of long flights, maybe in 6 or 8 years. Then I'll sell it. That's the only way I could get an elite visa. I want to live in Thailand, probably til death.

Meanwhile...

I'll see if the town's "guv'ner" can help, along with my fiancé, represent with me at the local bank. Soon enough it seems from reading the constructive comments here and other same-group posts... I'll be able to use the monthly income method for the 800k/yr.

We are wanting to apply for the DTV via the Chicago Embassy in the US. We plan on doing the Muay Thai class or cooking class.

How many months of bank statements is needed with the 500,000? And does a bank account summary work or do I need every account printed out?

I've seen this question posted but they are older posts and not Chicago specific. Just seeing if we can apply now or need to wait a few months.

Hi guys, so i applied using my business account for my statement because I move very little out of it to remain tax efficient. I have now been asked to show my personal account - if i just dump the money from my business into personal account as a lump sum, would that be acceptable to show the closing balance is above what they asked?

Hi, I am looking to apply for the DTV soon from the UK. I was wondering if anyone knows how long the 500,000 baht needs to be in the bank account for before and after the application? Do they check every entry?

Thanks!

Has anyone applied with children dependents for the DTV from Los Angeles Consulate? We'll apply for 4 visas (myself, spouse, our 2 kids). I've seen some posts saying they applied with 500,000 THB for each person, so I would need 2,000,000 THB for a family of 4 and I thought I saw someone that only had 1,000,000 for them and their spouse and they provided a letter for their children.
