Hi guys I’ve got 60 day Tourist visa for Thailand do you really need to hold 20,000 baht in cash to get in to the country? I can’t find anything on the embassy sight but seen a lot of forums online!
Answer summary
The requirement to hold 20,000 baht in cash upon entry into Thailand often comes up in discussions among travelers. While there is no official stipulation outlined on embassy websites, it is generally recommended to be prepared in case you are asked upon entry. Comments from other travelers suggest that as long as you have your visa and present yourself well, it is unlikely you will face issues.
