@Jeremy *******

plz educate me but isn't exchanging money international trade?

@Sami ********

I know that taipei and the filippines could be ok with that but if you apply for soft powers then don't go to taipei. And bear in mind that you are still gambling, they might ask to see your account and/or request and interview and having a lot of money going there just few days prior the application could be a red flag

@Sami ********

well, in that case depends on the embassy. if you had and you made it up to 500k recently then it's ok. If you went from k to 500k the other day then I suggest you to wait for a few weeks cuz it'd sound very suspecious

I'm in a similar situation. Just got asked for an interview which takes place after 10 days. Can you dm me pls? I got some questions for you if u don't mind sharing

@Sami ********

no, 10k is NEVER refundable for whatever reason. ALL the embassies require 500k, that's probably the strictest things they care about. There is no embassy that will accept a dtv without 500k.

@Paula ***********

you can do a research on this page, I forgot about it. I just remember that those who have shown crypto, stocks and investements they've often gold denied cuz the embassies just want to see the cash in you bank account. Sometimes they even complained cuz the cash was split in 2 different accounts even tho it still was over 500k in total...

If you don't mind gambling baht then you can take the risk. Most of embassies want to see the money sitting in the bank under your name, some even want them to sit in your account for several months before applying. That's one of the requirements they care the most, some folks who had investments, stocks and crypto for showing over 6 figures got denied for the reason I mentioned above

@John ******

not true at all, embassies require documents in English or Thai. I would use google lens to translate those documents into English and send them both copies

METV. It's good for 6 months and can get up to 9 with extensions done at the right time

not smart, play stupid games, win stupid prizes
