Can I extend my 45-day visa stamp online in Thailand if my return ticket is for a later date?
UPDATE!
Have arrived in Thailand, wasn’t asked anything at the check-in and didn’t need to prove anything on entry.
I had the website onward ticket at hand just in case I had to buy a ticket but then said nothing.
Got a 45 day stamp and will extend on the 30th of March.
Hi!
I’m travelling from Austria next week and have a return ticket for the 20th April.
When I arrive in Thailand, I understand I will get a 45 day visa stamp. Can I just extend the visa online through the immigration website?
Will I have any problems because my ticket is returning 60 days and not 45?
Thank you 🙏

Answer summary
A user recently shared their experience arriving in Thailand without needing to show proof of onward travel, receiving a 45-day visa stamp instead. They inquired whether they could extend this visa online, considering their return ticket is scheduled for 60 days later. Community responses indicated that airlines might require proof of onward travel before allowing check-in, and visa extensions must be done in person at local immigration offices in Thailand.

You'll most likely need a return flight or onward travel within 45 days in order to board your flight in Austria.

You have to ask your airline. They are the ones who will give you trouble. Immigration in Thailand likely won't ask about your flight out of Thailand but if you're traveling without a visa your airline may require you to show proof of leaving Thailand within 45 days before they will let you checkin.
You cannot get an extension online. You must apply in person at your local immigration office once you're in Thailand. These are the general requirements but will vary from office to office.
