How much money do I need for Thai visa?

Financial Requirements for Thai Visa

Obtaining a Thai visa requires applicants to demonstrate sufficient financial means to support their stay in the country. The specific amount of money required varies depending on the type of visa you are applying for and the duration of your stay.

General Requirements

For most tourist and non-immigrant visas, such as the Tourist Visa (TR) and the Non-Immigrant Visa (Single Entry or Multiple Entry), applicants must typically show proof of funds in an amount equivalent to or greater than the following:

• 10,000 Thai Baht (THB) per person for each day of intended stay
• 20,000 THB per family for each day of intended stay

Methods of Proof

Acceptable forms of proof of funds include:

• Bank Statement: A bank statement that shows a balance of at least the required amount in your bank account for the past six months.
• Confirmed Hotel Booking: A confirmed hotel or accommodation booking for the duration of your stay.

Additional Considerations

• If you are applying for a visa with a longer duration of stay, such as the Non-Immigrant Visa (Long Term), you may be required to provide additional proof of funds.
• You should also keep in mind that the Thai Embassy or Consulate may ask for additional documentation, such as proof of income or employment.
• The specific financial requirements may vary depending on the country you are applying from. It is always advisable to contact the Thai Embassy or Consulate in your country for the most up-to-date information.

Tips

• Ensure that your bank statement is translated into English or Thai if it is not already in one of those languages.
• Make sure to provide a clear and legible copy of your bank statement.
• If you are using a hotel booking as proof of funds, provide a confirmation email or printout showing the dates of your stay and the amount paid.
• Allow ample time to gather the necessary documentation and submit your visa application, as the processing time can vary.
