Apologies if this has been covered exhaustively, I haven’t been keeping an eye on things as I might. Has anyone been asked to provide proof of bank balance upon re-entering Thailand recently? Thank you.
Answer summary
The discussion reveals mixed experiences regarding the requirement for proof of bank balance when re-entering Thailand. Some users report not being asked for such proof after obtaining their visas, while others mention that immigration can request a demonstration of finances, typically around 20,000 THB in cash. Additionally, it's suggested that carrying other relevant documentation, such as proof of accommodation and onward travel, may be helpful.

once you’ve met the requirements and your visa has been issued it’s not reasonable or even realistic to suggest immigration officers can ask you to show your bank balance and refuse you entry if you deny, you met the requirements and got the visa already…idk why people keep asking this it’s so silly.
i got my DTV last week, came in no questions asked
Thailand Immigration CAN ask these questions: (I not say, you will be asked)
1. valid and genuine passport
2. IF you got a visa issued, a print out
3. Print of the Thailand Digital Arrival Card tdac.immigration.go.th
4. the Boarding pass
5. Proof of onward travel within the period you get stamped into this country
6. Proof of accommodation
7. Proof of finance, 20.000 Thb (40.000 Thb for family) or equivalent currency in CASH.
Not every visitor is asked to show all 7 points, it all depends on the Immigration Officer, but IF you get asked you have to show. IT saves a lot of time if you are prepared.
