You should be in the country you apply during the process, that means when you want to apply in Laos you should plan to have enough time in Laos.

@Christina *******
You should stay in the country where you apply during the application process.

Not doing so is risking your application and fee.

I think it is a wise decision not to accept crypto as a currencey for visa requirements, but there are more currencies they better could skip.

On the other hand they have the requirements in THB, that means it is the applicants responsibillity to keep it matching to 500K at any moment.

@Dany *******
And exactly that is why investments are not valid as funds for visa requirements.
Luit *****************
Anonieme deelnemer it is not about how you consider the 500K, but how Thai autorities consider it. They made a visa requirement of it. You can argue you don't need as much as you want, but those arguments have zero value, it are their arguments that count.
Luit *****************
Anonieme deelnemer 450 Maybe you should learn about visa requirements before you post rubbish here. I perfectly know the requirements, this has nothing to do with fear montering. In 99 percent or more you get away with abusing this visa, and when you comply to the requirements you have nothing to fear at all, so why do you accuse me of fear mongering.

It not needs to be a problem as long as you are not checked, and chnces getting checked are very low unless you want to do in country extension, but it is good to keep in mind why the visa requirement is there.

That is also why they at approval sometimes ask you how you want to support your daily living in Thailand, because the 500K is not meant for that.

Anonieme deelnemer Maybe it then just is easier to transfer before you travel in. Transferring it at the moment they ask you for it might give a bad expression.

Indeed you are not supposed to touch it, it is meant for emergencies, not for cost of living.
