Quick question about getting a tourist visa for Thailand! I’ll be applying for one in Penang, it will be my first time getting a tourist visa, however I have been in Thailand for a few months already just using my passport. I’ve looked up all the requirements for that visa, and was wondering if anyone knows if you need to have the bank statement on your fist application or not? If so, how far back does it need to go? Or does it just need to show the current balance?! Also, if you get an invitation letter instead of accommodation booking, what all does that letter need to say! Thanks!!

The bank statement needs to have your name bank account nr and your balance on it and it must be a recent statement. Letter of invitation, your name and passport details, invitation for the period of day till day, address and name and passport or ID details of the person who invites you.

okay thank you! And are they always asking for the Bank statement? I’ve looked at using a company to take me down there and they said in your first application you don’t. But maybe it’s because they’re a company?
