ORIGINAL POSTER
Has anyone been asked to show your 500k baht on your bank balance at immigration in the airport on your first time entering with an accepted DTV visa? Or are you okay to move the money out once you get accepted?

Most community members report that there is no requirement to show a 500k baht bank balance upon first entry into Thailand with an accepted DTV visa. Multiple responses indicate that they were never asked for proof of funds during their entry process.
