Quick question I know the 3 requirements. But popping back to U.K. for a few weeks on return flight from my arrival flight in April.

Booked accommodation I have year contract on apartment.

20,000baht cash.

Return flight booked.

I am on a non O-A do I really need a return or onward flight as not intending to return to U.K. for a while & definitely don’t know a date just intend renewing visa.

Many thanks in advance
Answer summary
The community clarifies that for holders of a Non O-A visa, there is no requirement to have a return or onward flight booked. This applies even if the individual plans to remain in Thailand and renew their visa without returning to their home country.
