Can bus or train tickets be used as proof of departure for a Thai visa application?
First, I really appreciate this group! I'm sorry I have posted so many questions lately🤦♀️ but we really appreciate all of the valuable advice! 🙏
I'll be applying for a tourist visa here at my Consulate and change to non B on arrival. I've been told I need to show exit travel. Other than airfare, does immigration generally accept bus train tickets to the border as proof of departure?
Also, any recommendations on health and car insurance would be great appreciated! 😊 Many, many thanks!

From reading, you can have any type of ticket pre booked to leave Thailand.

Im in this same boat and headed to Thailand on Tuesday. I booked a cheap ticket out of Thailand to Cambodia on May 22nd to show immigration so it looks like I'm moving on. I am hoping that will be good as it is an air ticket out. There are really cheap tickets to Cambodia.

A ticket TO the border does not satisfy the requirement for proof of leaving Thailand.
You need to check with your airline as they are the ones who will ask if anyone will.
