TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is concerned about being denied entry into Thailand despite having received their Thai Pass approval, a flight ticket out of Thailand, and sufficient cash. The community responses reassure that the chances of denial are slim, especially with a valid departure ticket. They recommend printing all necessary documents, including hotel reservations and eVisa copies for immigration, and suggest maintaining a polite demeanor upon arrival. Some comments also caution that travelers with previous visa extensions due to COVID may face additional scrutiny.

Be careful, a friend of mine with a similar experience, back to back covered extensions on visa free entry, was almost denied at swampy. He was on British passport, present a good appearance.

You'll be fine, but, as you've shown you can return to your home country you will not be approved for any future covid extension.

Thai immigration treat tourists from certain countries less favorably and subject them to different standarts. However, if you successfully obtained a TV in Vietnam then the entry should be straightforward

Have a departure ticket ready and hand that to immigration with your passport upon arrival and you won't be denied

I guess their only worry would be are you going to stay and get covid extensions again. If you have a departure flight then the that would solve the problem.

How long did it take you to get your ThaiPass?

I don't think you'll have issues coming back into Thailand. I would recommend printing everything, hotel reservation, flights, etc.

I always print everything when travelling, especially travelling into Thailand.

If you intend to extend your visa, you will need to take a printed copy of your eVisa with you to immigration. I tried to extend without it and had to come back.

Safe travels.
