You do, you just have no clue what it look like.

When you get denied entry it is mentioned in your passport by writing. But it's not a stamp in the traditional sense.

It's also mentioned in their computer/log.

Even if you had gotten the tourist visa, you would have been denied entry again by land and air. So please do not try to get in via Nong Khai, you will 100% get denied (even without the denial entry, you would be denied).

You have a denied entry in your passport, which will be more costly to get back in. Please contact a reputable agent like

and they can get you in. It's usually 4k baht to get in VIP/Safe entry, but because of your denied entry, it's gonna be double or triple that.

Once in Thailand, you will need to start the Non O process immediately based on Thai Child.

Immigration requirement is irrelevant to what the bank ruling is. With Bangkok Bank, your money will be stuck in your account for months.

The money need to be in the account for several months. You can't just put the money there and they issue the letter. This is in response to a scandal with Chinese getting scams.

This is true for every Bangkok Bank nationwide, but not the other Bank.

@Ker ****
Because you asked for 30 days when 30 days is not a thing. It doesn't exist. It's 60 days. So they can't give you something that doesn't exist. They laughed likely because with your travel history you should know better. The 60 days visa exempt replaced the 30 days a while ago.

You will not get denied since it's evident that you are a tourist.

If people like you get denied, Thailand would literally collapse. The laws are not design to cause trouble to people like you.

But your post is making it clear that Thailand is shooting himself in the foot with the unclear messaging which will scare a lot of genuine tourists.
