TLDR : Answer Summary

The financial requirements for the Non-O visa have indeed changed. Previously, applicants needed to provide bank statements showing at least 5,000 Euros over three months with no proof of income. Now, applicants must provide proof of either three months of bank statements totaling a minimum of 800,000 THB (approximately 21,700 Euros) or proof of a monthly income of at least 65,000 THB (around 1,750 Euros). Additionally, for extensions of the stay permit, certified income documentation from the German embassy in Bangkok is required.

for the application to the visa, your original income documents are accepted. However for the application to the 1-year Extension of the Stay Permit in Thailand, you need a certified income affidavit by the German embassy Bangkok over a minimum of equivalent 65,000 THB per month, and Immigration will most probably also wants to see that you have a Thai bank account
