Do you need to show a specific amount of money when entering Thailand by plane?

$20k cash

Unless you look like a broke ass foreigner that is going to overstay and beg for money to cover their $5 hostel, should be ok.

If you cannot easily access 20k baht or about $700 us, you may run into issues if they do question you. In the past 4 trips in 3 years, never came ups.

20k , condom box are required

Most replies will say the immigration officer won't check, but remember it's a Legal requirement to bring enough cash when one entering Thailand..

20,000thb and it has to be in small denominations 20, 50s, 100s 👍

If its of interest in addition to my comment above,i checked my new and old passport today and in 25 years and 41 entries to Thailand not once have I been asked on entry about my finances. But many times have obtained visa in u.k. before arriving.

I think the most difficult bet is being able to prove to your national customs u still have not bankrupt when returning from Thailand 555 🤭😂😂💸💸💸

Just carry some cash to the value of 20k b . Just in case

Just carry the required amount. Rather than chance it on the basis that most people aren't asked. . (Though some are).

If immigration take a dislike to you, if you don’t have 20,000 baht in cash they can refuse entry. Officially you should carry that amount when entering Thailand but it’s rarely enforced.

Yes it's law but they hardly ever do ask. The best and quickest way to actually pass immigration without hassle is to obtain and pay for your visa at a Thai embassy in your home country. A tourist visa can now be obtained online when any and all criteria is asked allowing you to cruise though in Thailand because all relevant questions have already been satisfied before you arrive.

BFH is all you need as a minimum

The official answer to that is yes. By law if asked you must show 20,000 baht (individual) or 40,000 baht (per family).

In practice 99.9% of people will never be asked. The immigration officer will generally only ever ask you to show funds if you have a history of multiple entries into Thailand and they suspect you of something like working illegally. They ask because it’s one of the reasons that they can use to deny you entry.

As a tourist or someone with a valid visa or little or no history of entering Thailand you have almost zero chance of being asked.
