Hello,

My wife has a teaching job in a Bangkok international school, so they will provide us with lots of paperwork for the visa application.

She will be applying for the type b visa and me and the children type o visa.

We need to provide bank statements from the last 3 months. This will have to be from our joint account.

We get paid into this account every month and then pay our bills etc Therefore, the balance goes up and down. I knew we would have to show we have sufficient funds, so in May added a much bigger amount than needed from a savings account into this joint account.

So the month of May will show plenty of funds and the other two months will have a fluctuating balance, sometimes dropping below the required amount needed in the account.

I am just checking that this will be sufficient, as I am struggling to find the answer.

The savings account unfortunately is in my name.

Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to open a joint bank account in Thailand, my gf is Thai. I’m on dtv and not that critical I get a bank account but would be useful to have!

Have tried on my own but no success

Going to apply for DTV Soft Power in Australia.

I have a joint account with my wife (who is not applying) but with a few times the required 500,000 baht.

Problem I see is they require 3 months of bank statement and if the joint account is rejected then I have to get a new bank account and wait 3 months of bank statements in my name only.

I've emailed the Sydney embassy but no reply.

Anyone have success using a joint in Australia please?

How do I open a joint bank account with my Thai partner and I only have retirement O (obviously I have a singular account) ???

Hi all. Thanks for posting great advice on the DTV visa. Older Aussie couple here. I have a couple of questions.

1) Is there a reputable Cooking school in Hua Hin to help with obtaining DTV?

2) Which is the best neighbouring country for processing the DTV once we have left Thailand after our tourist visit?

3) Would you recommend we both apply individually or one as primary and other as trailing spouse?

We have a joint account with over the 50,000 Baht limit, would this be acceptable for use with both our applications?

Thank you for your help with these questions.

Hello all. My question is this, as I can’t find an answer on the official page in regards to Retirement Visas. My wife and I are both over age 50. I am retired and she does not work and hasn’t for some years. We would like to move to Thailand and apply for a Retirement Visa but the requirements state each applicant must show individual income proof. Is my wife able to be a dependent on my retirement Visa? If not, if we both apply for retirement Visas, can we both use the same joint bank account as income verification? Thanks in advance.

I will be applying for DTV from Vietnam in june. Has anyone used a joint bankk account? If so, what are the requirements for using one please? Thanks

Hi! If you are apply for DTV with spouse visa, can you use a joint bank account for proof of 500,000bht?

I think I understand it correctly that we need 500,000bht each? If so, could we submit with 1M bht in one joint account?

Thanks!

I have 3 questions on the DTV Visa.

1. Can you have a joint bank account with the 30k USD/1M Baht when you apply for the DTV visa? I don't want to give my wife 15k :)

2. Can you get a bank account in Thailand with a DTV visa? I have read you can get one in Pattaya.

3. Is the requirement of a 180 stay mean, you need to leave Thailand and come back every 180 days for up to the 5 years? Basically a run for the border every 6 months...

DTV visa is my best option. I don't have a pension or any passive income yet to apply for the other visa options.
