What proof of funds do I need to enter Thailand with 20,000 Baht?

I have been going and coming to and through Thailand for the last 9 years maybe four or five times per year I've never been asked to show cash

I traveled about 80 times to Thailand and they never asked me that.

Who do want to show it to? I’m sure if you take your girlfriend to the ATM, she’ll believe you!

What a lot of debate about things everybody can read for themselves in the visasection on the website of most Thai Embassies in the whole world.

A website every traveller to Thailand should familiarize themselves with, before any travel to Thailand.

and this can be found in the E-Visa application system when applying for a single or multiple Tourist Visa Leisure . . proof of 3 months of funds of a minimum of 20,000 THB in your home bank account

Actually, SOME embassies are asking to upload into the E-Visa application a proof of funds of a minimum of 20,000 THB or equivalent, in your home bank account.

Here is an example of the requirements for the application to a single entry tourist visa by the Royal Thai Embassy in Vienna.

It might be similar in your home country, or in the home country of the OP, which is Sweden

You can get asked for proof of cash equivalent of 20,000 THB or equivalent in another major currency by the Immigration upon entering Thailand. However, this rarely happens. They only ask it from people if they want to find a reason to deny entry.

You can also get asked to prove that you have a minimum of equivalent of 20,000 THB (600 U.S. Dollars) on your home bank account when applying for a visa through the E-Visa online system. Here is the bank statement requirement from the Thai Embassy Vienna. NOTE: this is up to date and actually gets requested (some people accused me of posting old and obsolete information!)

Back home in Thailand you can't live without money

Immigration officers at borders only accept cash, I have border bounced 4 times this and last year before I got my long term visa and have never been asked to show funds (if you can call 20k baht funds 😂). But I always carried 20k and a return bus ticket just in case, better safe than sorry.

Cash never fails.

To enter Thailand under the Tourist Visa Exemption Scheme, you must have proof of sufficient funds: 20,000 Baht per family or 10,000 Baht per person in cash or travelers' checks, though electronic proof of funds is sometimes accepted. Immigration officers verify this to ensure visitors have adequate finances for their stay. While the requirement is often for cash, many travelers use bank statements or a credit card as proof.

Financial Proof for Entry

Requirement: 20,000 Baht for a family, or 10,000 Baht for an individual.

Why: To ensure you have sufficient funds for your stay in Thailand.

What to bring: Cash or traveler's checks are the official requirement. However, bank statements or other electronic forms of financial proof may be accepted by immigration officials.

Practical Advice

Carry Cash:

It is still recommended to have the cash on hand, especially if you are a first-time visitor, in case immigration officers ask for it.

Use ATMs:

You can use an ATM at the airport to withdraw cash if you are asked and don't have it readily available.

Don't Worry:

Most travelers are not asked for proof of funds, but it's best to be prepared.

FFS, why do people ask questions that require you to be a mind reader to answer!!!!!

I always being, I've never been asked. 🤷‍♂️

J needs to sober up before typing 😅😅😅

Three proofs for entry....

Booked accommodation

Onward ticket

20,000 baht in cash or equivalent currency.

Why using a j for I?

Pay money for the priest grave your grave brain dead

Die russian brain dead ha ha ga

Go to beach road and show the lady's, word will travel

20,000 baht isnt much money. So just have the cash on you. Easy.

Bank statatement in English should probably work.

Draw it on a piece of paper

I take some cash but never been asked for proof of funds, however better safe than sorry as the decision whether you enter the Kingdom, or not is up to an individual

Better safe than sorry!

If you’re one of the very few that do get asked to show it, it has to be in cash

Things happen

Coupe

Tsunami

Earthquakes

Wars

Etc

You should always have more than that in cash

I have been visiting Thailand annually for the past 20 years and have never taken cash with me.

Cash

I have been twice this year, coming again September, never been asked to show how much money I have.
