TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the requirements for obtaining a statutory declaration regarding income at the Australian embassy, particularly focusing on the varying requirements between the embassy in Bangkok and the consulate in Chiang Mai. It highlights that the Chiang Mai consulate requires proof for the declaration, while Bangkok may only require filling out a form without additional documentation. There is also an inquiry about whether a statutory declaration needs to be translated into Thai for a Non-O visa application based on marriage.

There is a confusion because the Auzzie consulate in Chiang Mai DOES require proof to issue the stat dec notary letters.

AFAIK; the one in bangkok doesn't require anything, just show up, fill out the form, get it stamped and you're done

Next question. Does the stat dec need to be translated to Thai for a Non O (based on marriage) application?

They take your word for it. I just fill out the standard Aust stat dec for annual monthly and fortnightly income.

Yes that is what a stat dec is but I'm more interested in what "proof" is required to be produced to the embassy. Is it like the residence stat dec (take your word for it) or are bank statements from home required etc.

Sorry I haven't, but I'm also interested to know. I have heard that the stat dec is in itself proof, as this is a legal document (in Australia), and so all things being equal, if you are declaring it so, it is so...
