Anyone had any issues coming back in on soft power? Proof of fund checks etc?

Or is it just a straight stamp… non anon accounts only 🤣

🙏🏼
Answer summary
The general consensus among community members is that re-entering Thailand on a soft power visa typically does not involve significant issues, such as proof of funds checks. However, there may be rare instances where immigration officers ask questions, especially for individuals who have been living in Thailand for an extended period. Most users report a smooth re-entry process without any questioning.

Straight walk through no questions asked. You already have the visa why would you have to prove you can have the visa it's already done

I very much doubt you’re going to have any issues, but of course there are always going to be some rare cases where people are questioned by the immigration officer. Probably those that have been living In Thailand for many years and abusing the system.

Some been questioned but never seen anyone post refused entry, immigration can still question you and ask for information to make sure you still meet the criteria
