Will having two bank accounts affect my DTV application if only one has less than 500k?

Greg ********

Anonymous participant I was at a DTV promotions events yesterday and your question pretty much came up. Answer was show both accounts and short explanation in cover note. One thing they said some Embassies do not like is just a lump sum in an account and no activity. A bigger red flag is the lump sum deposited just for the DTV.

As suggested. Show both accounts and explain in short note one is savings and one is your day to day account. That covers your bases.

How many times can I enter Thailand with a multiple entry DTV?

Greg ********

Currently there are no limits. Not heard of anyone pulled yet on DTV for this pattern. People coming regularly on Visa Exempt are getting pulled ie "Month on Month Off" workers and being told to get DTV. This visa was mentioned to a pal in that situation by immigration officer.

Can I apply for a Thai DTV or should I consider a soft power visa given my income sources?

Greg ********

Should be absolutely no issue. That is IF, and a big if right now, Immigration tighten up re-entry rules. Entry numbers are the priority right now from both presentations yesterday. They will favour entries over extensions I would suspect. :-)
