There is ZERO financial requirement for the application to the multi entry Tourist Visa is what the website of the Royal Thai Embassy London says.

This must be a mistake, as the E-Visa website says something very different. The E-Visa website says:

The single entry Tourist Visa and Multiple Entry Tourist visa have 2 different sets of financial requirements. So that is the most likely reason to see different amounts required.

It appears that the London embassy has not updated their website since they re-added financial requirements to tourist visas. I'm not sure what the required amount is for a METV.

These were the requirements in 2022, so I doubt the amount would be any less than this.

Umm, that's exactly what I said. "It appears that the London embassy has not updated their website since they re-added financial requirements to tourist visas. I'm not sure what the required amount is for a METV."

Then I said what the requirements from 2022 were.
