How Much Bank Balance Do You Really Need for a Tourist Visa?

- Schengen Visa – Around ₹2–2.5 lakhs for a 15–20 day trip.

- UK Visa – At least ₹2.5–3 lakhs depending on stay length.

- USA Visa – No fixed rule, but ₹5–7 lakhs+ shows financial strength.

- Dubai/Gulf – Much less, ₹1–1.5 lakhs is usually fine.

- Australia/NZ – Around ₹2.5–3 lakhs for short visits.

👉 Tip: More important than the “amount” is showing consistent income, genuine savings, and no sudden large deposits.
