As Australian passport holder do I need to apply online for a thai visa exemption or just book the flights?

Answer summary

As an Australian passport holder, you do not need to apply online for a Thai visa exemption; you can simply book your flights. Upon arrival in Thailand, you will receive a 60-day visa exemption stamp in your passport by presenting your passport and boarding pass.

What about the proof of funds and accommodation and all that when I use to apply for visa is that not required anymore?

Some embassies and consulates were more strict when you applied for a tourist visa, but the requirements are formally the same but rarely checked in the immigration, but you might risk your airline will ask for an onward ticket within the initial 60 days, and as said the requirements are formally the same if you do get asked.

Yes, and you probably won’t be asked of anything in the immigration, but your airline might check your onward/return ticket within 60 days.

You do not apply for Visa Exempt, if you qualify you just turn up and get stamped in for 60 days

Currently the only thing you need for visa exempt is your passport.

Just book the flights. You’ll get a 60 day visa exempt stamp on entry.

You’ll get a 60 days visa exemption and free stamp upon arrival just by showing your passport and boarding card.
