so you tell me where the viable logic of a traveller going into Thailand who has 800k in he's Thai bank account but not 20k baht in he's wallet? Forget the rule. I'm asking you if immigration ask for 20k cash to prove to them you've got money to spend in Thailand yet won't accept a Thai bank app with that much money in it?

that's actually a good point but then if this is the case, the rule should be abolished otherwise it's simply to grey. Perhaps the best rule here would be allow only 1 border run per visa. Then there's no confusion. But that was a fair twist at the same time both reasons have merit. Cheers

@Ben ********
certainly the exit ticket after 30 days when 2 border runs are well within the rule book

This crap is becoming increasingly annoying. The accommodation and 20k, ok that's fair enough. But with the rules stating 2 border runs a year is valid, there is no reason to be asking for an ongoing ticket after 30 days of return.

Pattaya would be jomtien then. Pattaya itself doesn't have immigration. Thanks for your information

@Steve *******
very strange as I'm sure Pattaya has the next largest expat community to BKK

@Steve *******
I've learnt something there. Had no idea you could make an appointment. This BKK? I use jomtien

As long as you have everything required the only pain is the time consuming sitting around and waiting at immigration
