What is the required bank balance for a couple applying for the DTV visa in Thailand?

@Brandon ***********

I don't think a spouse will need their own DTV (possibly won't qualify). I think the carrot on the stick for the DTV is to make life easier for married couples. The Info provided by MFA states only marriage certificate

That's easy. Everybody on Facebook these days is a "digital creator" or a "content creator". It doesn't take much to be a "Tik-Tok star"!

A lot of people are being very negative towards this new visa because it's a game-changer. It's the biggest upheaval in Thailand visa history. It's virtually an open door to anyone who wants five years in the country

I know exactly what you're trying to say. I said the DTV is a game-changer, and the game might not be a good one

That might depend on how much money they are prepared to throw around. Unfortunately the criteria for the DTV is hardly exacting, so it's going to encourage a lot of deadwood, people who are long term tourists who just want to do nothing and live on next to nothing
