Hello, I have finally got my Non Immigrant ED visa from Thai Embassy London. Thanks to all the admin for their help:) I want to show proof of onward travel just incase an IO asks for this at Suvarnabhumi Airport.
I will have well over 20k baht plus confirmation of hotel for the first few days until I find a condo. Plus all my paperwork that the school has advised me to have on me. My question is, do I ONLY need to book a ONE-WAY flight ( for example to LAOS/Cambodia ) or do I need a return flight back into Thailand. I will not be using this flight, it's only to satisfy immigration.
Will it not look strange that I have a visa to learn Thai language yet I am leaving on a one-way flight within the first 90 days ?? Or will a one-way flight out within the 90 days be substantial? Thanks
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user has received a Non Immigrant ED visa and seeks clarification on whether they need to book a return flight, given they plan to show proof of onward travel at the airport. Comments from the community suggest that while a return flight isn't typically required, having proof of onward travel can be beneficial, especially if transitioning from tourism visas. The consensus is that it’s unlikely they will be asked for such proof, particularly as a newcomer with an education visa.
