TLDR : Answer Summary

The Non-OA visa does not require funds to be held in a Thai bank. The initial application can use funds from a home country bank account. It's recommended to check with the Thai Embassy for specific requirements regarding how long those funds need to have been in the account prior to application.

Non oa visa initial application fund can be in your home country bank account, but check the embassy for how long funds needed to be in account before applying.

You get the Non-OA online via the Thai Embassy in the country where you reside so you must be "home" to apply. Check the Embassy website for their specific requirements.
