What should I do if I'm unable to provide the bank statements requested for my Non-immigrant O visa application in Thailand?

Confusion

Hi all, I have applied for a Non-immigrant O visa . They have come back and said they want bank statements for 3 months showing income which I have but they are asking again. I’m applying using the e visa here in Australia. I cannot for the life of me download that bank statement again on there system. Nor is it possible to speak to anyone at the embassy. Anyone else had this problem. I’m leaving in the 22/4. Do I just forget this application and do a tourist visa 90 days and then have another crack while I’m there. Basically it seems I cannot edit anything in my recent application.

Cheers.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user expresses confusion after being asked repeatedly for bank statements to support their Non-immigrant O visa application via eVisa from Australia. They are unable to upload the required documents and cannot contact the embassy for assistance. Several comments from other users offer advice on uploading bank statements (including merging them into a single PDF) and suggest alternative approaches, such as applying for a tourist visa if the issue persists.

eVisa is not asking for income in your bank account. They are asking for the saldo end of every of last 3 months. Does not have to be any movement of funds, just the saldo of 800,000 THB at the end of each of last 3 months.

You may need PC, dont know how it may work from a phone, I use Win 11.

Use free pdf24 tool (the site is not dot com, it is dot org). Download it, no adds, no clutter from them.

1. From your bank site, download last 3 months statements, month by month, as individual .pdf files (like statement1, statement2, statement3).

2. Use pdf24 to concatenate them into a single file, like "statement4"

3. The concatenated file (all 3 statements) may be too big for eVisa to accept.

From Windows, open the file (statement4), use Print , chose "Print as .pdf". Or "Save as .pdf, can not remember, it was June 2025.

That will make the contatenated file much smaller in size but still .pdf.

4. Upload that file (the output from the step 3).

That is how I did it and it worked. I am now on 1 year extension but that is how it started, to gain 90 days Retirement visa.

Thailand Mickey Mouse. Incompetent. Useless. Waste of time. I was thinking of doing a retirement visa but since I have permanent residency in China I think I’ll just do the 60 day landing visa. I visit 5+ times a year, only stay in hotels, stay 2-3 weeks each time.

Get on a plane.

Land in BKK, with a 60 day visa free get outa jail stamp.

Contact Thai Visa Centre via their Line a/c.

Pay the fee, get the Visa.

It is that easy.

All those Embassy websites are nothing but trouble, promising service, and give absolutely fuckall, staffed by drones whose sole credentials are knowing how to progress thru the system, with absolutely no talent.

Can you still convert a visa exempt entry into a Non-O from within Thailand?

I thought you have to leave the country to apply.

You should be create a PDF file and upload it

I would go to the bank you use & ask them to help

You can do up to 10 applications on the Thai embassy website , whatever isn’t completed is automatically deleted after 14 days

Just upload the last three months of bank statements again, as required.

Be aware that you can only upload a single file. If you try to upload three separate files, only the last one will be registered.

You therefore need to convert the statements to PDF and merge them into one single file before uploading.

Ralph Tyson TM30 registration online is for landlords, not for you. They have to register (even if your Thai wife) but become taxable as renters.

If they do and register, give you their login and password, you can do it online.

Not like you jump from the sofa and do it online yourself.

I had the exact same issue from Canada. I filtered the bank information to only show deposits for the last 4 months so it was all on one page. When they asked you for more information you should have been able to upload an additional document. That’s how I did it.
