- It isnt to show income, but to show employment. Other freelancers have mentioned that they have had to prove that they have actual work by showing payments/tax receipts

Is it possible to hire an agent to help with the 500k bank statement requirement for a Thai visa?

John *******

It will also depend on the size embsssy. Since more and more are asking for 3-6 months of bank statements. So if you are paying an agent to give you money to put into your account, you also need to look at the specific embassy’s requirements. It is getting stricter week by week

Will the Thai embassy in HCMC move services online after October?

John *******

Usually appointments at embassies as scheduled a week to three weeks out. Your post kind of passively implied that it was a long time before you could get an appointment. If worried about the length of time, other than time, other embassies, like in Phnom Penh only accept walk ins.

Hundreds of people have posted about already receiving this visa. For me, it took 6 days, because that is what is stated on the pick up receipt. However, the visa itself shows it was approved 2 days after I applied.
