How can I prove financial funds for a tourist visa in Thailand without a bank statement, and do I need health insurance for the application?

To apply for a tourist visa in Thailand, you can potentially prove financial funds without a bank statement, as not all embassies require this. However, if your funds are cash-based, proving their availability may be difficult. It's also important to check whether health insurance is necessary for your visa application and to look for affordable options for obtaining it.
