TLDR : Answer Summary
The process of applying for a DTV visa in Vientiane requires proof of funds, typically shown through a mobile banking application. It's reported that applicants need to display a 500,000 THB balance in a mobile banking app linked to a Thai bank. Without the app, bank statements may be inadequate unless validated. Users suggest that if you don't have the app, getting a letter from your country's embassy verifying your banking history could be a possible alternative.

All bank statements have to be validated with the banking application on your phone. They will not accept the statement without verifying it, same thing happened to me. Incase you don't have the banking app you need a letter from your countries embassy stating they have verified your banking history.

Go, get it, Tiger. The app is free and available for all Thai banks.

Bank statement seems to be fine. That's from Vientiane Embassy:

that's not from the embassy. That's something the MFA created to announce the visa. These are not officially requirements, it's just an advertisement flyer.

It's a screenshot from Thai Embassy website.
