Is it possible to book a train or bus ticket to  Laos or Malaysia as my proof of exit for a METV?

Thanks

Answer summary

The question asks whether train or bus tickets to Laos or Malaysia can serve as proof of exit for a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) in Thailand. Community responses confirm that it is generally acceptable, though practices may vary by embassy, with some suggesting the possibility of needing to show plane tickets instead. Overall, a train ticket seems to be the more favored option among respondents.
