Bank statements must have the bank to stamp and sign their name on your bank statement or they will not give you the visa also at the end of day must show you got over 20,000 bhats in your bank account

They don’t ask for the source of the funds. They just want to see 3 months of statements showing that you having at least 20k ฿ each month.
