I'm currently in Vietnam and will apply for a DTV here. I intend to apply via the soft power Muay Thai option.

I will only have had the GBP equivalent of 500k THB in my primary account for 1 month prior to my application.

I can also show a monthly UK sourced income of the equivalent of 45000 THB per month. I'm not sure if this would benefit my DTV application in any way.

Would a 3 month UK bank statement showing the 500k THB for just 1 month be enough to satisfy the requirements in Vietnam?

Prior to this the money was scattered across different accounts and in investments.

Has anyone had a DTV approved in Vietnam with the money only showing present for 1 month?

Hey everyone, does anyone in Bangkok have contacts for the DTV visa? I’m specifically looking at the Muay Thai option since there’s no clear info on the tax situation for digital nomads.

From what I understand, once you stay in Thailand for over 6 months, you become a tax resident, meaning any income earned while in TH is taxable. I haven’t seen any official clarification stating otherwise. Has anyone here been asked to pay taxes or provide extra documents while on the DTV?

Would love to hear real experiences—thanks!
