ORIGINAL POSTER

I will be getting a SETV in HCMC.  Will they accept cash for proof of 20k Baht?  I have not used the bank account in my home country because I do everything cash in hand and have since college.  Can I take a picture of me holding the money with the newspaper date as proof?  I saw they need actual bank statements.   And what about the 30 day minimum proof of accommodation?  I will be hopping around.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The poster inquires about the possibility of using cash as proof of 20,000 Baht for a SETV application in Ho Chi Minh City. They question whether holding cash and providing a picture with a newspaper date would suffice, given that they haven't used a bank account. Additionally, they ask about the accommodation requirement of 30 days while planning to hop around.
