ORIGINAL POSTERHanoi Tourist Visa Question:
"A bank statement in the past 6 months showing minimum fund of 20,000.- THB per person / 40,000.- THB per family" (from official website)
Curious if this means I need a (one) statement within the past 6 months that shows the minimum fund, or if this is actually a mis-translation and they want 6 months worth of statements?
Any recent news or such with getting a TV here?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The bank statement requirement for a tourist visa application appears to necessitate two documents: one showing the transactions over the past six months and another demonstrating a minimum balance of 20,000 THB at the time of application. Recent comments clarify that you need to provide a comprehensive bank statement for the last six months, which may include many pages, along with a confirmation that the current balance meets the required amount.

This is the answer from HCMC if that helps:
For the bank statement, the applicant needs to submit:
1 document showing the transactions within 6 months
1 document showing that the current account has an equivalent of 20.000 Baht
You can ask the bank to issue the documents 1 week before applying for the visa.

6 months of bank statements showing a balance of 20,000+ in each month

@Brandon ***********
that doesn’t make sense. What your bank account balance was over the last 6 months is irrelevant to what you have now to support yourself during a visit.Justin *********
