So I need to do my first visa run pretty soon, but I also quit my job not too long ago and looking for a new one. And my savings has fallen a bit under the 500k requirement since entering Thailand 5 months ago.

My question: do officers check to see that you are still current with your job + savings upon re-entry?

Is it worth trying to enter again under my DTV and see what happens? Or should I take another route being that my situation has changed?

My bank account balance for the last three months has been around 16,000$ 17,000$, and 18,000$. It's more than 500,000 baht, but not significantly more. Is there a chance of getting a visa with this amount, or do they require much larger sums?

Low income - High bank balance

Did anyone apply with low income (monthly 500-600€) in the last 3 months and double/triple amount of minimum bank balance, and got rejected with freelance contracts?

Hey there, does anyone know if it's a problem, if the account balance wasn't quite 500,000 for one or two days in the last three months? For example, I had 500,000 for six months, except for two days when it was maybe 490,000.

Thanks in advance 😌

Any Indians who recently got approved can tell me how much money you had in your bank account and for how long? Is 10 lakhs enough? Or 13.89 lakhs (converting 500k THB)? Especially those who applied at Chennai.

Hi this might be a silly question but when proving the bank balance, does it need to be a business account? Or can it be in any account?

Hey guys, bit confused about the 500k THB thing.

The rules say you need to have it in your bank account (crypto not allowed), but I’ve heard some people had to show proof of it again when (re-)entering Thailand.

There’s nothing I can find that says you need to keep that money in your bank account at all times. Honestly, I’d rather invest it than let it just sit there.

Has anyone ever been denied re-entry because they invested that money into stocks or crypto after getting their DTV approved?

Anyone here got personal experience with this?

Has anyone been asked to show your 500k baht on your bank balance at immigration in the airport on your first time entering with an accepted DTV visa? Or are you okay to move the money out once you get accepted?
