Hello

I am going to apply for a DTV Visa Muay thai in Vietnam in 10 days. I am French and asked my bank for my bank statements in English. They told me my bank statmenrs are available in French but not in English. Has someone had the case? Is it ok to apply without documents in English? What should si do? I am so stressed

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is preparing to apply for a DTV Muay Thai visa in Thailand while currently in Vietnam. They are encountering difficulties obtaining their bank statements in English from their French bank. Community responses suggest that it is generally acceptable to submit bank statements in French, as long as vital information such as the name, account number, and balance are clearly highlighted. Some users recommend self-translating the documents or using online translation services to provide additional translated copies.

get that statement and use chatgpt/google translate to make an extra translated copy. you can highlight the dates and the last balance. Scan both copies (original and translated one) and put them in a pdf. It worked for me

Send documents for translation to translate office. But check again if really is not possible to have bank statement in English…

Oddly enough my Korean bank had zero issues with issuing the documents in English 🤷🏻

Ask the Embassy on how to proceed. In my case, Seoul Embassy accepts document issued only in Thai or English (not even Korean).

Do you ask for that document online or in person?
