Hey everyone, I’m thinking of applying for the DTV in Ho Chi Minh City soon and trying to get clarity on the financial proof requirement.
I’ve got more than 500,000 baht in GBP sitting in my UK bank account, but it’s only been there for a few weeks. Some places say it needs to have been sitting there for three months, others say it doesn’t matter.
Has anyone here applied in HCMC and got approved with less than three months of bank history?
I can also include a sponsorship letter from a parent with their bank statements and proof of relationship if needed, but I’d rather just use my own funds if possible.
Would really appreciate any recent experiences or advice. Thanks.
Hi everyone. I'm attaching here the contact details of the Thai Embassy in Ho Chi Minh City / Vietnam so you can get a response from them on the LINE app (if they decide to answer🫣). I was able to get this from them after I got there physically because there is no way to reach them.
I'm applying for a DTV spouse/dependent visa at the Thai consulate in Ho Chi Minh City and just received a request for additional documents. I would really appreciate your insights.
Here's the situation:
I submitted my bank statement (6 months), my husband's bank statement (also 6 months), and his financial sponsorship letter. Now the consulate is asking for:
"Provide financial sponsorship letter along with transaction for 6 months and account balance not less than 500,000 baht."
I'm confused because I already provided exactly that - a sponsorship letter and both of our bank statements showing consistent activity and sufficient funds.
They also asked:
"Will you stay in Thailand continuously for 5 years? Are you currently working? If yes, please provide info. If not, what are your plans for the next 5 years in Thailand?"
I'm not sure what exactly they're looking for or if this usually means a likely rejection.
Has anyone experienced something similar at the HCM consulate (or elsewhere)?
