What are the best ways to translate Norwegian bank statements for a Thai visa application?

Oct 18, 2025

So I applied in Hanoi and this is what they asked me.

Financial evidence: an amount of no less than 500,000 THB (e.g., bank statements for the last three months, sponsor letter): Bank statement translated into English

I got Norwegian bank and gave them bank statement in Norwegian but added the currency in bath next to total amount I had in saved account.

How do you guys translate ? Any solution to this?

I did google translate as jpg because it wouldn't take my pdf. Looked like absolute garbage, but along with the originals it was accepted no problems. In Hanoi.
