During Immigration (for tourism purpose), do we need to carry 20,000 THB cash per person? Would credit card be a sufficient proof for funds?
TLDR : Answer Summary
As a tourist entering Thailand, you are typically required to have proof of funds, which should be 20,000 THB or its equivalent in another currency, and this must be in cash, not via credit card or bank statements. While strict adherence to this rule is outlined, many travelers report that immigration rarely asks for proof of funds unless there are specific concerns regarding one’s financial status. Therefore, while it is advisable to have the cash ready, the likelihood of being asked for it varies.
