When applying for Thai Tourist Visa in Vientiane, Laos, can proof of funds be shown in cash or must it be shown in a bank statement?

Answer summary

When applying for a Thai Tourist Visa in Vientiane, Laos, you are generally required to show proof of funds through a bank statement. However, if asked for proof when entering Thailand, cash may be acceptable. It's advisable to have a bank statement ready when applying at the consulate.

Let's go over the difference between the two times you're likely to be asked for proof of funds and how you meet it.

IF you are buying a VISA at a thai consulate in another country and asked for proof of funds, you show a bank statement you CANNOT show cash

IF you are stamping IN to the country and are asked for proof of funds you show CASH and you cannot show a bank statement
