I've received my 'workcation' DTV, and I'll be landing next week for the first time on the visa from the UK. I've reached out to the consulate which approved it in London with a few questions, but haven't received a reply yet. 

1. For the proof of funds they asked for during the application, do I need to bring the bank statements with me to show at immigration when I arrive each time? (I assume I'll have to do this the first time I arrive).

2. Do I need a return/outward flight booked? I'm not sure when I'll be heading back yet, or which country I'll be travelling onwards to!

Many thanks!

Answer summary

A user is preparing to arrive in Thailand on a workcation DTV visa and asking if they need to bring bank statements as proof of funds upon arrival and whether a return flight must be booked. Comments indicate that it is wise to carry the bank statements initially but are not strictly required for subsequent entries, and a return flight is not necessary.

Many thanks, all! I'll bring the statements the first few times, as a just-in-case. If it seems they don't need it, I won't bother on subsequent trips. The onward flight, I'll give a miss!
