Hi,,Not sure if anyone can answer this in here,but I try anyway.

For a thai to get visa to go to Germany,,,the requierments I think I understand,,but this one has been arrested at least 2 times for fighting,,violence,,,is due to meet in court this month,but dont want to go,,,

Can this be a reason for denial of visa?

The proof of money ,,,does it have to be in thai account,,,or is it enough with an invite letter and guarranty from german citizen?

TLDR : Answer Summary
A history of arrests and unresolved legal issues, like not wanting to attend a court case, can raise concerns about the applicant's intent to return to Thailand, potentially affecting their visa application negatively. Additionally, questions about proof of funds can vary; it's important to clarify if the financial evidence needs to be in a Thai bank account or can be supplemented with an invitation letter and guarantee from a German citizen.

With many visas for western counties, it comes down to proof that the individual will return to their home country. If you say he/she doesn’t want to go to their court case, that is a red flag that they might be less

Likely to return, trying to get away from legal trouble.

What is usually requierd as proof that they will return?

However, multiple arrests could be a separate dealbreaker. Does the application asks for those details?
