TLDR : Answer Summary
To enter Thailand, if asked, travelers are recommended to show 20,000 THB (or equivalent in cash). It's important to note that being asked for this amount is rare; only a small percentage of visitors face such inquiries. Bank statements or credits do not suffice. Bringing extra cash is advised for safety.
The fact that you’ve never been asked is pretty irrelevant to the OPs question. Most people aren’t asked. Some are. If asked it needs to be in cash. 20k Thai baht or equivalent.
IF asked to show amount (very few are asked) it would need to be 20,000 baht or equivalent in cash only. A bank account or credit card statement doesn’t suffice.
Cash amount is incredibly rarely asked for. The law exists that they can ask but they’ll only invoke the rule if they’re looking for a reason to deny you entry. For 99.9% of people that won’t happen.
