How do I provide translations for non-English bank statements and payslips for my workation visa application in Vietnam?

Has anyone experience with handing in non-English bank statements (and payslips) at an embassy outside of your home country?

For example I’m German and I apply for workation DTV in Vietnam and I am a bit lost of how to provide TRANSLATIONS of the bank statements of the last 3-6 months. It basically consists of numbers only and is like 20 pages long, so it would take forever to translate that. It’s an actual German bank so no wise or revolut account. Does anyone have an idea for that? Thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a workation visa (DTV) in Vietnam, submitting non-English bank statements and payslips can pose a challenge. It's recommended to either translate documents using tools like Google Translate or seek an English version directly from the bank. Some bank apps may allow users to request statements in English, which could simplify the process.

Some bank apps have an option to change the language into English, than apply for the statements. Otherwise, contact the bank and ask if they can provide in English.
