What does it mean if someone receives a stamp at BKK airport denying entry into Thailand?
Hello Community a friend was not allowed to enter Thailand on BKK airport and got a stamp in his passport. Now he dont know he will be able to enter Thailand again or he blacklisted..somebody know what this stamp means he didnt got any answer from Thai-police...
Answer summary
A friend was denied entry into Thailand at BKK airport and received a stamp indicating insufficient funds. The community clarified that this stamp does not necessarily mean he is blacklisted, but rather that entry was denied under Article 12, Section 2 due to a lack of financial proof. It was suggested that he should consider applying for a visa in advance for better chances of re-entry, as the decision ultimately lies with the immigration officer at the time of entry. Other recommendations included trying a different entry point.

And with the wise words of

above and just adding that your history of living in Thailand will be taken into consideration if you enter on Visa Exempt Entry or Tourist Visa, I close the commenting. Other than try again, maybe at different entry point, with or without a visa there is not much more to contribute.Nathan ****
End of the day it’s down to the immigration officer to approve or decline at there discretion they have said he didn’t have the funds available so he will have to try for visa at the embassy and try again

OPIs it better to make the visa in Advance or they Maybe not allow again to enter thailand

@Robert ******
and also - he should try a different entry point. So if this was by air, try by land from a different country
Jon **********
If he has many entries into thailand, yes its better to have a visa. But he can still be questioned/denied
Robert *******
He can try again with a visa or again for visa exempt entry, there is no guarantee that he can enter. It all depends on his history of living in Thailand and the Immigration Officer who makes the decision.

if he was asked to and showed 30k cash, then the IO is wrong to deny entry based on this. You sure he had it in cash?Robert *******
He is not black listed, just denied entry based on section 12 article 2 and article 9: No funds

Prohibited under the unsufficient fund reason.
