Answer summary
Swedish passport holders can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 30 days under the visa exemption rule, and no payment is required at the airport. If planning to stay longer than 30 days, it's advised to apply for a Tourist Visa before arrival, which allows for a 60-day stay extendable by 30 days. To extend beyond the initial 30 days, an extension at an immigration office is necessary.

When going to Thailand for 31 - 60 ( 90 )days, the 60 days touristvisa is the best option.
It is cheaper than visa excempt + 30 days extension.
No need of a onward ticket ( 90 days 1 onward ), if returnticket within 60 days.
It is easier to apply from the comfort of your home.

Not wasting holiday time to find, go to and waiting at a immigration office ( 90 you would need that ).
Then no need to leave Thailand in up to 90 days.

i dont need pay for visa in the airport? I have one way ticket arter that i going to travel others places like philippins bali then back to Thailand againMarianne ********
No.
You coming here with a Swedish passport gives you a Visa Exemption of 30 days.
You do not pay for anything on arrival, but you will need to show proof of outbound flight from Thailand within 30 days.
You can extend these 30 days at a Immigration office in Thailand, 1900 for another 30 days. But after this, you need to leave.
If you want 3 months in Thailand, apply for a Tourist Visa ( or Non O for Retirement if you are 50+ and fill the other requirements ) BEFORE you come here.
A normal Tourist Visa gives you 60 days when you arrive, and can be extended with another 30 days for a total of 90 days.

Get a cheap bus ticket and print the requirements from the embassy I gave in my screenshot. The staff at the airport often don’t know the formal requirements.

de är ju perfekt ska bara vara där 20-25dagar fast ha enkel biljett bara. Sen få de bli phillipins efter :) .Jan ******************
@Toufic *******
Nei så lenge du kan vise at du har en billett videre eller ut av Thailand innen 30 dager, så er alle formelle krav overholdt og du har rett til å reise inn i Thailand i 30 dager uten visum.Toufic ********
OP@Jan *****************
då behöver man ingen visa elr något så länge man bokar biljett innan 30 dagar osv.Jan ******************
@Toufic *******
Ja det må du bestemme selv. Jeg har bare opplyst deg om at det er et formelt krav om utreisebillett innen 30 dager når du reiser på visumfritak og at det er på flyplassen i København før du reiser de kan spørre deg om dette.Toufic ********
OP@Jan *****************

vet du några sidor man kan boka ifrån billigt o sånt? För tänkte åka till phillippins efter Thailand. Problemet kan jag boka biljetten när jag landat i Thailand elr måste jag göra de innan åker dit säg tex göra de i dk såfall.Jan ******************
@Toufic *******
Ok, det er det flyselskapet du har kjøpt billett med som kan spørre deg om du har visum eller billett ut av Thailand innen 30 dager. Noen krever dette og noen spør ikke om det. Det kan være lurt for sikkerhets skyld å bestille en rimelig billett med fly eks fra Bangkok til Phnom Phen i Cambodia. Det får man for rundt 500 sek på nett. Det beste var jo om du kunne bestille den billetten du tenker å bruke når du uansett planlegger å reise ut av Thailand innen en måned.Toufic ********
OP@Jan *****************
vad är de för företag man ska ringa då? Har aldrig rest till thailand förut första gången.Jan ******************
@Toufic *******
Ja ok, det er det samme. Du kan prøve å ringe selskapet først å høre, men man vet aldri. Ofte går det greit, men jeg vet om folk som er nektet booarding både i Norge og utlandet.Toufic ********
OP@Jan *****************

@Toufic *******
Problemet kan være innsjekk på flyplassen i Sverige. I Thailand vil du høyst sannsynlig aldri bli spurt om dette.Toufic ********
OP@Jan *****************
can i book that ticket in Thailand or i need do it before i land?Marianne ********
@Toufic *******
You will need a outbound ticket either way. If you do not have one you may be denied boarding in Sweden.
The application process for Tourist Visa will tell you if you need outbound ticket when you apply for a Tourist Visa.
If yo are a Swedish Citizen, you apply here

@Toufic *******
ja du måste kunna visa utresebiljett inom 30 dagar och det spelar ingen roll till vilket land du reser.Toufic ********
OP@Shaughn **********
yes if i have wifi on the flight i book a ticket to philppins :) . Or i can do it when i land in thailand thats works?
Shaughn ***********
@Toufic *******
you can book it from the moon if you have wifi signal there 😂. It’s always much cheaper to book about 2 or more months outToufic ********
OP@Shaughn **********
i going to phillppins also can i book that ticket in Thailand when or i need do it before i go insidan Thailand?Jan ******************
@Toufic *******
Ja formelt må du det når du ankommer på 30 dagers visumfritak. Du blir neppe spurt i Thailand men flyselskapet ditt i Sverige kan kreve det. Som jeg har vist sier formelle krav at en buss billett ut er tilstrekkelig. Hadde noen venner som bare kjøpte en billett fra Nong Khai i nord til Laos på nett som de ikke brukte. Har reist mange ganger uten billett selv, men vet at noen har fått problem ved innsjekk når fe skal reise.Shaughn ***********
@Toufic *******
book your 2nd ticket from Thailand to the next country you want to go to. It’s better that you book it early as the prices are cheaper. The only snag is it needs to be at 30 days, but you can always change that later. I see that Scoot airline have good prices and a change ticket pricing option if you think you might change the date. Airasia is bad for being expensive with flight changes. You should be more specific on when you are planning for that next country visit though if you want the best adviceMarianne ********
@Toufic *******
The airline is in theory obligated to check for a outbound ticket, and if you do not have one if they ask you will be denied check-in. Many are lucky and don't get asked, and many are not lucky and do get asked.
Toufic ********
OP@Marianne *******
i will check it, but hear many people just travel with one way ticket and Leave the Thailand before 30 daysToufic ********
OP@Jan *****************
måste jag visa vart jag ska resa efteråt även om jag stannar bara 20-25 dagar?Jan ******************
@Toufic *******
Problemet er at du kan bli nektet check in av flyselskapet ditt i Sverige fordi de kan bli ansvarlige for din retur om ikke formelle regler er overholdt. I Thailand spør de sjelden om billett ut på visumfritak.Marianne ********
@Toufic *******
Then look up the requirements for Visa Exemption for Swedish Citizens.Toufic ********

@Toufic *******
a flight to another Country is an onward ticket ticket but they may require one for a flight from there too.Marianne ********

@Toufic *******
There's a very good chance you'll be denied boarding in Sweden without onward travel within 30 days if you're travelling to Thailand without a visaMarianne ********
@Toufic *******
If you're just going and getting a Visa Exemption, no visa. Just get a dummy ticket at
