Here is what they require. ORIGINAL documents. Not original copys. I would expect if you don't give them original documents you don't get the visa.

yes I understand but if I give them my original diplomas I expect to get it back. Unless the accept original copies. Also they need to explain what original is. Some might say original documents are the ones that should be stamped by Thai ministry of foreign affairs and others would say originals are the ones that you originally got from your University. It's confusing. I hope my employer understand
