Do I need to show 20,000b in cash if I am re-entering the country with my first Non-B visa? (work permit process will happen after I re-enter). TIA for your advice
Answer summary
When re-entering Thailand on a Non-B visa, it is advisable to be prepared to show 20,000 baht in cash as proof of funds. Although it is not guaranteed that immigration officers will ask for this amount, having it readily available minimizes potential issues during the entry process. Experiences vary among travelers, with some reporting they were not questioned while others have been asked for proof of cash.

Have it ready just in case. Was asked at Sadao earlier this year, as were many others.
I have entered many exempts, on SETV's and now have multiple entries on Non O. Never been asked but I always carry it. It is habit now. You never know when they will ask.....
There is no down side to being prepared with the proof of funds which as people pointed out has to be in CASH and can't be a credit card or bank book. AND if you're flying there are no ATM's air-side (before you get to passport control from your plane).
