Hey guys, heading back soon and just want to check which printed documents (people who have been pulled up on) have you needed?

I’ve got bank statements

Printed DTV

And then will fill out my digital card within 3 days before arriving.

Anything else?

Thank you!
Answer summary
The discussion centers around the necessary printed documents required for entry into Thailand with a DTV visa. Users share varying experiences, with some stating they only needed their passport and DTV printout, while others mention having bank statements on hand. It is noted that the requirements can differ based on the immigration officer and point of entry, and the TM30 form is clarified to be completed within 24 hours of arrival rather than presented at the border.

Never been asked to produce anything. I hand them my passport and a printout of my DTV. That's it.

I think it really depends on which port and IO/their condition 🤣

For my first time entry, all I got is one question "how long will you stay" and all done within a minute. I don't even need to show anything i'd prepared.

TM30 is not needed for any arrival - it is done once you are in country - within 24 hours.

what if I tell you you should bring a certificate of your marriage and a certificate of your birth?

You just need your visa and passport. That's all.

yeah, it's been said... Without any hard arguments - just because like that. That's why I think it's totally unnecessary

that it's wise to have with you a copy of the documentation submitted to the Thai Embassy or Consulate... Evisa online application system for the DTV visa. Simply have them to show if asked by Thai Immigration Officers.
