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 🙏
TLDR : Answer Summary
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.
