Answer summary
When entering Thailand with a DTV visa, you should be prepared to potentially show a few documents such as your passport, the DTV visa issued, and the Digital Arrival Card. Immigration may ask about financial proof, where you must present 40,000 Baht in cash for a family, or 20,000 Baht for an individual. Responses from other users suggest that while not everyone gets asked for all documents, having them ready can save time. Additionally, when traveling with children, they will typically be included under your visa, receiving the same duration of stay.

Nice question that I also wanted to ask , another thing , how do you put the kids with the visa when you enter ? They go automatically on your visa so they get the same 5 years and 180 day every entry or do you have to do different?

For a family, it's 40K Baht irrespective of family size.

Thailand Immigration CAN ask these questions (I not say, you will be asked)

1. valid and genuine passport

2. IF you got a visa issued, a print out

3. Print of the Thailand Digital Arrival Card tdac.immigration.go.th

4. the Boarding pass

5. Proof of onward travel within the period you get stamped into this country

6. Proof of accommodation

7. Proof of finance, 20.000 Thb (40.000 Thb for family) or equivalent currency in CASH.

Not every visitor is asked to show all 7 points, it all depends on the Immigration Officer, but IF you get asked you have to show. IT saves a lot of time if you are prepared.

Immigration officer will just check your passport, DTV evisa and the digital arrival card nothing more and I don't think they will ask any questions. I face immigration to times with my DTV.
