What documents do I need to show upon arrival in Bangkok with an e-visa?

ORIGINAL POSTER
Hopefully entering BKK airport soon again with my approved DTV soft power from Hanoi. What do I need to show besides the printed e-visa? I know I need to fill in the TDAC, do I need to book a flight out of Thailand in about 6 months to show the officer? & anything else? Much appreciated!

TLDR : Answer Summary
When arriving at Bangkok airport with your approved DTV soft power and e-visa, you typically need to show your Passport, Visa Copy, and the completed TDAC form. While it’s generally not required, having additional documents ready, such as an exit ticket, can provide peace of mind as immigration officers may ask for them on a case-by-case basis.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be agents.co.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

Firstly, congratulations!

There will be 2 sides to this:

What's usually asked for Vs what one must have.

While I had a lot of documents prepared including exit ticket handy, when I eventually landed I was asked to show only my Passport, Visa Copy and TDAC.

Having said that, I would always keep all documents ready for my peace of mind even if they aren't asked for usually. It's pretty much upto to the IO as to what they might ask for on case to case basis.
