Do I need to show proof of funds for my tourist visit to Thailand?
James ************
The rule is, you have to have 20k baht or equivalent in cash on you. Getting checked is completely random though.

 you can carry any currency. Just has to be equal to 20,000 baht. I keep 1000 usd just in case. But 20 ish times through on visa exempt, never once been asked

What proof of income is required for a NON-O visa extension in Thailand for foreign spouses of Thai citizens?

@Wayne *******
 I tried to do the income based one, and not keep money in the bank, I dont like banks. But they asked for information and stuff I could not provide. Like a work contract, a W2, letter from employer, over 80k a month in to my account was not enough for me

@Wayne *******
 its a crapshoot. You might get lucky and get through, but highly unlikely. Just put the 800k in the bank and forget about it.
