What if my DTV bank statement has a large recent deposit?
A recent large deposit is not automatically fatal, but it can make the file look staged unless the source is clear. The safer approach is to attach evidence showing where the money came from.
What applicants reported
Many applicant questions are really about whether the balance looks genuine. Reports suggest unexplained movement can trigger extra review even when the final balance is high enough.
What to prepare
- Add payslips, invoices, sale records, savings transfer records, or investment liquidation evidence.
- Keep the explanation short and factual.
- Make sure the final statement still clearly meets the 500,000 THB threshold.
Important caution
Do not alter bank statements. Explain the movement with supporting documents instead.

How to use this page
Large Deposit on DTV Statement? | DTV Q&A is written for people preparing a Thailand Destination Thailand Visa file, including applicants and Thai helpers supporting someone else. Use it as a preparation check before submitting documents, not as a promise that an embassy will approve a specific case.
A recent large deposit is not automatically fatal, but it can make the file look staged unless the source is clear. The practical goal is to make the applicant's route, funds, identity documents, and supporting evidence easy for a reviewer to understand.
What to check before relying on it
Read this page alongside the latest embassy instructions for the place where the applicant will apply. DTV practice can differ by post, and public reports are best used as preparation signals. A stronger file usually makes the applicant's category clear, shows funds in a readable way, explains unusual bank activity, and avoids mismatched names, dates, or document versions.
If a Thai friend, partner, assistant, or agent is helping, they can use these notes to translate requirements into a simple document checklist. The applicant should still confirm official rules, because DTVCheck is a preparation tool and not an embassy decision maker.
