Please let me know current condition and immigration situation for entering Thailand from Cambodia with DTV visa. I’m planning to return tomorrow.

So reading all these posts I have a question.

I am married to a Thai but I work on a ship and I am only back in Thailand in the Winter (End Dec till Mid Feb) then I am back at work so max 50 days this year will be less I usually enter on Visa Exempt don't need extension for the last 3 years I was there in Aug for 16 Holiday to see the wife. I know it's up to the IO but was just wondering if I can expect any problems.

Arrive 30 Dec Depart 11 Feb with 6 days in Vietnam in the middle.

I have ticket out already and my contract and letter of employment for next year.

I just arrived from Taipei to Chiang Mai 12/13/26 11:00.

The airport was not crowded.

Immigration had many officers waiting for us.

I showed the officer my DTV Visa stapled in the passport.

He asked no questions, smiled and said “ Welcome to Thailand."

I checked my passport and was correctly stamped in for 180 days.

NOTE: there was a typed document in multiple languages pasted on the immigration window saying, “Please show your hotel or address where you will be staying".

Remember this is one of the "3 Proofs"that we hear about. I was not asked but I had a reservation for a $4 hotel.

How many of you remember the other 2 "Proofs"?

My passport expires on the 6th of June 2026 and I'm planning to visit thailand on the 17th of December, will it be a problem since I don't have six months validity? I hold an Indian passport.. thank you.

I’ve got tickets booked to arrive in Thailand next week. This will be my fourth visit for the year. Others being in March, June and October. Each visit, I stay for 3 weeks. Genuine tourist. Have return flight back to Australia paid for. Accomodation booked. Enough cash to pass the 20,000 baht test. Have I got anything to be concerned about? As in, entry refusal?

Update from Phuket airport. Just arrived tonight from Vietnam and they cracking down hard on both non visa and visa holders. I been on my DTV for over a year and i needed to show 20k cash, pictures from my softpower training (muaythai) and they even asked me to call the gym owner to confirm i was still training there. Lucky the owner picked up the call. Was about 20 more people in same room as me and atleast 10 got denied entry and deported. From start to finish was around 2 hours to get my stamp. Be ready with your documents and proof.

A foreign tourist has warned travellers after being denied entry at Thailand’s Don Mueang Airport for insufficient funds. Immigration officers enforced the regulation requiring visitors to prove they possess at least 20,000 baht upon arrival.

The traveller claimed she was unaware of the rule and was refused permission to withdraw cash from an ATM. She expressed frustration at the lack of clear guidance and was told to attempt entry through a different airport.

Thai authorities confirm that proof of financial means is a mandatory requirement, though enforcement remains discretionary. Tourists are advised to ensure they carry adequate funds or documentation to prevent border issues.

Financial requirement of 500k...what is known regarding each 180 day report for again showing funds? Is it only when doing in country, or is it also at airport and border crossing on arrival? Or is it simply at officers discretion? Thank you.

Hi All,

So in January I will be leaving and returning to Thailand for the first time since getting my Non O extended and I have a question that I can't find a clear answer to on Google and I was wondering if anyone here could help out. Under the Visa exemption rules you are supposed to have 10k baht or equivalent currency, a flight leaving Thailand and booking details of where you are staying in Thailand. My question is are all of these still a requirement when entering with a Non O, are some still applicable or do they not apply to a Non O? If anyone knows the answer or has experience of being asked any of these while on a Non O the assistance would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
