TLDR : Answer Summary

The user recently obtained a NON-OA visa and has questions regarding arrival procedures in Thailand. They inquire about cash requirements at immigration, the necessity of a return ticket, who files the TM 30 form, and whether they need to file a TM 28 when moving to a condo. A comment suggests that proof of funds, hotel bookings, or a return ticket is not typically required for this visa type upon entry, and to ensure a full-year stamp is provided upon arrival.

You shouldn't be asked for proof of funds, a hotel booking or onward travel with that visa when you stamp into the country

Make sure that you're stamped in for a WHOLE year when they stamp you in.

Congrats (y)
