Can I book a one-way flight if I enter Thailand on a 60-day tourist visa?
If I enter Thailand on a 60 day tourist visa can i book a one way flight?
Answer summary
Yes, you can enter Thailand on a 60-day tourist visa without the need for an onward flight ticket, as having a stamped visa negates that requirement. However, some airlines might still ask for an onward travel proof, and policies can vary by airline and country of departure. It's advisable to check with your airline before booking.

To board the plane - yes, it negates the need to show a flight out but you may need it for your application for a tourist visa to begim with (some embassies ask for it, some dont).
Duncan *******

You can buy bus ticket to Lao for $20 online -- skip the whole headache. Worst case is you will not use the bus ticket and you are out $20.. I have heard good and bad things about 'rent airline' ticket - and so I can not recommend it.Lance *******
Then tell the airline that. It happened to me to and i explained that and they let me on.

OPI cannot see the point of a return journey as i intend to go to Laos to get a non of for marriage which is the purpose of my journey!

@Mark *********
Yes in fact they do. But that's not the airline's concern, they are concerned about entry requirements, and those do not include onward travel requirement when you already applied and are awarded any kind of stamped visa. And not many embassies actually require proof of onward travel either.Mark **********
OPJust the visa requirements may say that I need onward travel
Jacco ***********
If you have a valid visa in your passport, there is NO onward travel requirement, the embassy might ask you if you apply for the visa, an airline has no legal ground to ask you, as the travel requirement only exists for the 30 days visa exempt stamp, if you have a stamped visa, no such requirement exists.

'onward travel' is the requirement. I used bus ticket $20 online. Or take a risk.
Gaz ******
I came here with no return on no visa
Shiva *******
No. Need with return ticket
Mark ********
Wrong. Visa means no requirement for onward flight
Mark **********
OPThanks for that
@Jacco **********
Jacco ***********
Yes you can, a stamped visa negates the ticket out requirement
Lance *******
Sorry just seen this. You'll be all good
Mark **********
OPI intend to do just that then get a non immigrant o visa in Laos
Jacco ***********
@Lance ******
Sorry to hear that, of course they have no right to refuse you boarding on that basis, as with an SETV or a non O there is no ticket out requirement, hence it cannot possibly be used to deny someone boarding. Big fat compensation claim would be feasible if an airline ever did try to do just that .Lance *******
I decided to fly Emirates once with setv. They refused to let me fly without onward flights. I had some documents for my non o visa i told them im getting married and will be living there. 45 minutes later they checked me in.
Mark **********
OPIt will be Thai airways from lhr
Lance *******
I've left NZ a few times with setv flying Thai airways no problem.
Lance *******
That's up to the airline in the country you're departing.
