TLDR : 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.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be agents.co.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

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.

20k equivalent in cash is what is being asked sometimes for repeat entries, along with outward ticket, accomodation.
