I have a retirement visa. Had the 800,000 baht in my Thai bank. Building a home and it has gone below 400,000 baht.

My renewal is due in March 2026.

I have today transferred 400,000 baht to top up my Thai account.

Will there be any repercussions for letting it go below 400,000 baht?

I have searched and am unable to find any reference to maintaining a bank balance of 400,000 baht.

Thanks.

Hi for the DTV visa do you need to have the 500,000 baht in your account 3 months before applying for the visa?

thanks in advance

Guys, I see a lot of confusion about this: do you have to have the minimum 500,000 THB for at least 1 month? 3 months? or 6 months? I can prove a good flow of income for the last 2 years. But 5 months ago I made an investment and I no longer had that minimum amount. However, I have had at least 500,000 baht in the bank for exactly 3 months, and now I have even more. Do you think I could have a problem because 4 months ago I did not have the minimum?

Good afternoon. I entered Thailand with DTV in august 24. so i need to extend. I applied under medical soft power and already printed all documents from Bumrungrad hospital. Due to high medical costs and co-pay from insurance, my foreign bank account can’t keep the same balance for months. I printed evidence of income with embassy signature. But if they still want to see a steady balance, I could print a sponsorship letter from relatives. I believe this was meant for emplpyers. Did someone try private sponsorship? I don’t like long bus trips and would prefer to avoid border jumps 🙏

Hi, I am looking to apply for the DTV soon from the UK. I was wondering if anyone knows how long the 500,000 baht needs to be in the bank account for before and after the application? Do they check every entry?

Thanks!

Just renewed my 1yr ext on marraige visa..can i now use the 400k as long as back in the account 2 full months before i re apply Nov.??Tia

Aim on applying for DTV (under Soft Powers option) in the near future, so just pulling together what I will need. Am aware that the official web-site list is a starting point but that individual embassies often have specific and/or additional requirements. So would really appreciate any insights, tips, experiences etc of applying through Jakarta e.g. is it evisa only or can still do personal visit, what are their requirements on bank balance and statements etc.

Thanks, in advance ...

Has anyone applied for the DTV visa in Vietnam? I am planning to travel there soon to do it and wanted to know if they require the 500k baht to be held for a minimum period of time. Also, since I work remotely, what documents should I request from my employer?

Hey. Got a few questions about the DTV Visa I'd love to get some help with. I'm applying in Taipei.

1. If you already live in Thailand, can you write your Thai address as your permanent address on the DTV application form?

2. About the bank balance showing 500K+ THB, does it have to be from the day of application or can it be from 1 or 2 days prior to application?

3. Should the passport copies be in color or black and white? I once had an immigration officer not accepting my application because the copies were in color.

Thank you.

Did anyone successfully apply at HCMC with current balance of 500k (not for 6 months)

I know 💯 Hanoi accepts just current but not sure about HCMC
