What are the financial requirements for a student visa application in Thailand from France, Laos, and Vietnam?

Question

Hi. 
I try to make a student visa for Thailand. 
So I have all the paperwork from the school already but in my country (France) the Thai embassy ask me to show a statement with at least 10,000€ on it. 
I would like to know if you have to show the same amount of money if I do my visa in Vietnam or Lao for example. 
Thx 🙏

The post discusses the financial requirements for obtaining a Non-Immigrant ED visa (student visa) for Thailand. The original poster, a French national, is currently in France and has been asked by the Thai embassy for a bank statement showing €10,000 to apply for the visa. The conversation reveals varying financial requirements among different Thai consulates, mentioning that the consulate in Vientiane, Laos, may require a minimum of 20,000 THB without stringent financial proof, while the Thai embassy in Vietnam does not specify financial requirements on their website. Suggestions are made for the poster to consider different consulates, emphasizing that the Thai consulate in Paris may have stricter regulations.

okay [mention redacted], unfortunately the thai consulate in Paris is perhaps the WORST thai consulate in all of the EU to apply for an ED visa at especially if he's enrolled in a private language school. The requirements are way out of wack.

In fact I don't know anyone who has ever gotten an ED visa successfully from that consulate :O

I agree with the other posters, either have him get a single entry tourist visa from the thai consulate there  OR fly here on a 30 day visa exempt entry. Get new documents from the school and go to a thai consulate in the immediate area (Lao, Malaysia, Myanmar, Vietnam) to get the ED visa from there.

Good Luck (y)

€10,000 is around €1000 a month for the time to live on an ED visa. If you cannot show €10,000 how do you intend to be able tp afford live here?

Robert ******* · Answer

Just to answer the question: The requirement in the Thai Consulate in Vientiane is a minimum of 20.000 Thb on a bank account.

Another question. I just checked your profile, and it looks like you're Thai. If you're looking to get a French Education visa (so you, a Thai person, can study in France), you'll have to go to the French consulate and inquire with them.
