If you have a 3 month, single entry non immigrant B visa, do you need to present anything to immigration officers upon arrival?

Things like 20k funds, flight out, etc.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When arriving in Thailand with a 3 month single entry non-immigrant B visa, generally, you are not required to present additional documents like proof of funds or onward travel. While it is theoretically possible for immigration officers to ask for such documentation, it is rare for those holding non-immigrant type visas to be questioned. It's advisable to carry your visa receipt as confirmation of your visa status upon entry.

In theory ANYONE entering thailand on any visa or extension can be asked for proof of funds, onward travel and lodging,

BUT

With that being said, people who have Non-Immigrant Type visas (O's, B's, ED's, F's RS's etc) or extensions of stays are rarely if ever asked for anything.

Just have your receipt from the consulate showing you just got the visa and you should be fine.

There is no rule that you have to show a work permit when entering on a Non-B visa (because many people who just GET a Non-B visa don't have a work permit yet :P)
