TLDR : Answer Summary
UK passport holders can enter Thailand without a visa and receive a 60-day visa exempt stamp upon arrival. It's important to have proof of accommodation, evidence of onward travel, and ideally 20,000 THB in cash, although proof of funds may not always be requested. The process is relatively straightforward, making it easy for short stays.

Do you need to show a covid vaccine proof when entering Thialand?

I’m from UK and Never been asked for proof of funds in 16 years of near monthly in/outs, possible you may need proof of onward travel after your stay expires,, however I’ve been asked that only twice during my travels and that was by the check in staff.

You don't need a visa for less than 60 days.

Yep. Visa exempt. Just turn up with passport and you can stay for 60 days without a visa.

Simply fly into Thailand and you will be stamped in 60-day Visa Exempt. Make sure you have ฿20k cash, evidence of where your staying and a flight out within the 60 days.

@Phil *****
it’s a written rule but only enforced if you are coming from a very poor country or you appear to be lacking funds to enter the country. It’s extremely isolated. For example, I have entered Thailand well over 100 times never been asked. Same for other people I know.

@Jo *********
I've never been asked and from Australia. However I must advise official rule to op which is ฿20k.
