Do I need to show 500 THB in my account for a certain period or just the current balance when applying for a visa from Canada?

Hello! Has anyone applied and was approved from Canada? Wondering if anyone knows if the 500 Thb ($19,559+ cad) needs to be shown over a certain period of time in your account or can you show them the current funds standing in your account as of day you applied. Thank you in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about the requirement to show 500 THB when applying for a visa to Thailand from Canada. Specifically, they asked if the funds need to be maintained in their account over a period of time or if the current balance on the application day is sufficient. A commenter shared that their friend successfully used just the last bank statement, showing a recent transfer to meet the requirement.

Friend of mine in Ottawa. Just the last bank statement, he transferred 20k from an investment account the day before the statement closed. No problem.
