TLDR : Answer Summary
For a Pakistani citizen applying for a tourist visa to Thailand, it appears that a financial sponsor is not necessary. The essential requirements include having 20,000 THB in a bank account, confirmed flight tickets, and hotel bookings. The visa application process has become more accessible with an online system.

All he needs is 20,000 THB in the bank, confirmed flight tickets and hotels. No need of a sponsor.

He doesn’t have money in any bank account under his name, that’s why I’m acting as sponsor. Would it matter if the hotel bookings are in my name?
