Arrived Wednesday at Swampy on a 30 day visa exempt entry. Previous retirement visa expired in June while I was in the states.

On arrival I was asked to show 20K thb and a ticket out of Thailand.

Based on other comments and stories evidently that 20K and ticket out of the country is being enforced more and more.
