What are the updated tourist visa requirements at the Thai consulate in Penang?

Someone posted an update Jim Tachinamurthy in Penang posted

This is a re-cap of it

That consulate in Penang is closed Oct 10, 13 & 24

If you're gonna apply for a tourist visa in Penang you need to have;

-3 month bank statement with 50-80k baht in it

(that's almost DOUBLE the 20K baht that Vientiane and Savannakhet and HCMC and Hanoi require).

-confirmed flight out of Thailand in UNDER 60 days

-confirmed lodging until the flight out of thailand date

Seems a LOT more stringent than other places 😕
