Hi everyone, i have a question, im doing my dtv in Madrid embassy, and I have sent my bank statement from a saving bank account i have in the US. And they came back with this: Please provide an official Spanish bank statement showing your name as account owner and cash transactions and most updated balance. So i dont understand if they want me to send it from my bank account in europe (which seems ridiculous and will cost me transactions fee) or they want it to be in spanish language. Anyone had this situation before? how you solve it?

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is seeking clarification on whether they need to submit an official bank statement from a Spanish bank for their Thai visa application at the Madrid embassy, after receiving a request for such documentation. Responses suggest that while some embassies may have strict requirements, it's advisable to directly contact the embassy for clarification on whether the bank statement must come from a Spanish bank. Others have shared experiences with their own bank statements from non-Spanish institutions being accepted.
Usually the visa application location has to match with your passport home and/or address home, so if you submitted a US passport and/or a US home address then they probably want you to apply at the Thai embassy or consulate that's nearest to that location, if you supply a Spain passport and Spain address then they'll ask for everything from Spain. You can't mix and match. Same goes for background check etc.

I would not think that a Thai Visa is asking for a Spanish statement ๐ค๐คฃ๐

Each embassy sets their own requirements. I've read reports that Madrid might not be very user friendly. You may want to get clarification from them if they in fact require the money to be in Europe or even Spain specifically.

My Japanese bank has statements in English. I downloaded 3 of them (last 3 months) as .pdf then concatenated them into a single attachment (you can attach only one file) and it was accepted for my Non-O 90 days visa.
There are free .pdf concatenation sites.
I used BestPDF, they let you do the concatenation, one-off, and be able to reuse it for 7 days. It was like 2 US$. Be aware, if you do not cancel it within 7 days, they will be charging you 34 EUR a month until you cancel it.
