I applied in Jakarta Embassy

DTV Type: Workcation

Passport: USA

8/17: Application Submitted

8/20: Pending Approval

8/21: Approved

No additional documents were requested.

What I submitted:

* A letter from the employer stating that I work for them and that I'm allowed to work remotely/from Thailand

* 6 months bank statements (> 500k THB each month)

* Tax returns from 2023 and 2024

* Evidence of current location (boarding pass, entry stamp, stay permit from Indonesian immigration, GPS screenshot of my location)

* My CV and portfolio

Thank you everyone for making this group a great resource.

submitted my application in Jakarta and uploaded all the required documents, including:

Scanned copies of every page of my passport

Employment certificate issued by my company

Work contract

Bank statements (with monthly salary transactions)

Proof of deposit (balance meeting 500,000 THB requirement)

Jakarta entry stamp

Hotel booking confirmation

Location screenshots

But despite all this, my application was still rejected.

I carefully checked everything and made sure there were no mistakes in my submission.

The rejection came so unexpectedly, leaving me completely unprepared.

This is the second time they’ve asked me for additional documents in regards to financial evidence.

Applying in Indonesia - Jakarta Consulate

I have 10K USD and 10K Euro in two separate checking accounts (but with the same bank)

I did highlight the balance + start and end date for my documents. I guess my documents say April-August, but since I haven’t made any transactions in the account since April so there isn’t a new transaction line for anything in August.

I did include a cover letter explaining that there is money in two accounts both for the 3 month period.

Or is the issue that I have the money in two separate accounts? Looking through this group I saw a number of posts from people who were able to use two accounts - even though I know it also said one account is better

I can move the money into a single account - but then it wouldn’t look seasoned?

Thanks!

What's all this dribble on Bangkok Bank and visas? Is this going to affect renewing my Marriage Visa with the 400k in the bank for 3 months? But BKK Bank is only providing the certificate/statement if it's been there for 4? Is this Thailand wide? It's great that there's a crackdown on people abusing the system with dodgy agents, but is this going to affect people doing it correctly with the immigration 3 month rule?

Hi everyone,

I'm in the process of applying for a non o visa here in the UK but I'm having issues uploading the 3 months bank statements 😢. Can I put them in a zip file and upload that?

Sorry I'm not very computer savvy and I'm struggling with the pdf merge tool I've tried using (pdf guru). They have sent me a merged pdf file but when I try to view it, I'm just seeing blank pages 🤷.

I stupidly, initially sent them in a screenshot.... Bad move, they requested more info, so I'm going into panic mode now.

I really hope you guys can help me with this 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you in advance for any info and advice ❤️🇹🇭❤️

I applied for soft power. After about 2 weeks of document check pending status, they requested more documents. One was employment letter, I don't know what that has to do with soft power? I work freelance so can't really provide this anyways. The other requested document was bank statement, which I already provided that was well over 500k. Not sure what to do next.

My bank just told me they cant give me monthly statements in English. However, they can give me a report of the current amount of money on my account in English. So I was thinking of asking them to give me one at the end of September, another one at the end of October and another one at the end of November. I plan to apply in early December. Do you think the Vientiane embassy will accept this?

Okay, to apply for a 90-day non O retirement visa while I’m in the USA I need at least two (maybe 3) bank statements showing I have at least 800,000 baht. My question is would an account with one of those “online only” banks be acceptable? Ally is one example. Thanks everybody.

This might be a wacky question, but do I have to get my bank account statement "translated" if my bank is not located in a country where neither Englisch nor Thai are an administrative language?

In other words:

My bank account statement's details (transfer references) are not in English but, in my case, in German. However, it's still obvious which transfers are a minus and which are a plus.

Thanks a lot for your attention! 🙏

EDIT:

On ThaiEVisa it says that all documents must be in English or Thai. Does this include bank statements as well (regarding the subject of listed transfers)?

Financial evidence in Berlin for DTV for medical reasons.

I have more than the required 500,000 THB = 13,000 EUR in stocks, but not as bank balance. Is financial evidence in stocks accepted? I can provide this for current and last 3 months, or even longer if necessary. If only bank balance is accepted, is current sufficient or 3 months back?
