Hi Guys, I need to go back into Thailand to get a document from my school. I am flying back in on Wednesday will I have problems at the airport? My school is closed at the moment so it is impossible to reach them for a document I have in anyway. Can I get visa on arrival.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is concerned about re-entering Thailand to retrieve a document from their school, which is currently closed, and is inquiring if they would face issues at the airport and whether they can obtain a visa on arrival. Comments from others in the thread indicate a need to clarify their nationality for specific visa information.

I know it's 20k with a tourist visa. Quite sure it's only 10 for an exemption.

For a visa exemption I believe you only have to be able show 10k baht cash, or foreign currency equivalent.

when you fly back in you should get in on a 30 day visa exempt entry stamp without a problem.
