No! You must have the cash. If entering by air at Suvarnabhumi or Don Muang with that rejection stamp from Poipet/Aran, make absolutely sure you have this. The rejection stamp is a suggestion to airport immigration that they should deny entry and try to force you back to your home country. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you are currently in PP? If planning to fly into Thailand make sure that you have 20k baht or equivalent currency. The airline will require you to provide proof of onward flight. Have a clear prepared "story" of your plans in Thailand and print out of onward flight. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJack54 Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 1 minute ago, Kardashev said: Yes I have an onward flight ticket Flight is into BKK Suvarnabhumi Good answers to both. One piece of advice. When questioned by immigration officer (may not be) .... Have a clear precise outline of your plans. Have hotel address on the ready to show. Book maybe ones pay at hotel . Don't bring a gf or other distractions into conversation. Have onward flight handy to show on screenshot etc Good luck. Think you will be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cannot provide/show the 20k. He already stated that he has onward flight. Regarding rental contract that would actually harm his chances of entry.

Dan O Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 6 hours ago, Raindancer said: Seems rather strange that as a " tourist" you are attempting a third re-entry. The IO at the airport might just ask you, why you keep re entering consecutively on a tourist visa. Perhaps you should apply for a proper visa, if indeed you actually qualify. That would put your mind at rest and solve the issue. OP never told his past history of entries and extensions, he only mentioned this is his 3rd entry by land. He very well could have a long string of various entries and extension and that is the reason for his denial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strictly speaking, an IO has no right to insist on CASH as proof of funds for a traveller's living expenses but some IOs like to act dumb sometimes. Do you have your bank book with you? If not, do you have the bank's e-banking app on your phone so that, after landing in Bangkok, you can call up the statement of the balance onto your screen?
