Anonymous participant 321 you don't need to bring any cash if you have a debit card without atm fees.

@Daniel ******

you only need a Thai bank to have unlimited top up balance. Without Thai bank account you can still get one but the max balance you can have is 3000 baht.

Best wishes

Per the Los Angeles Consulate website:

Per the regulation, the Consulate "cannot" issue a visa for foreign nationals who are not in Consulate's juridiction and who arecurrently in Thailand. All travelers need to obtain a visa before entering Thailand. *If you entered Thailand without a visa, please contact the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th) to explore the options in your case*

@Elías *******

no, as I mentioned in the original post the letter states I am able to work remotely

How would you prove the wallet is yours?

how is it a stupid question?

Will you have to prove to immigration after 6 months that you've re-enrolled?
