TLDR : Answer Summary
When entering Thailand with a 90-day NON-O visa, typically there is no requirement for a return ticket, especially since the visa will be extended for one year on marriage grounds. While some travelers have successfully entered Thailand without a return ticket, there can be occasional misunderstandings at check-in. It's advisable to inform airline staff about your long-term visa if they question the absence of a return ticket. Some commenters mentioned that although they were not required to provide return flight details, visa applications at certain embassies may ask for such information.

Hi Brian, hope you are keeping well, another issue i think maybe a problem is when applying for the NON - O the thai Embassy london ask for the return details, how do you get over that one as it is all done on line, and all questions need answering answering before you can submit the form.

Do you know if you apply for a non-o 90 day multiple entry how long this gives you or do you need to leave and re-enter every 90 days

Do you enter on the 30 day and apply at the local immigration office for a year extension

Long term visas do not need a onward or return flight. Your check in desk person may not know that. Ask for a supervisor if they don’t.
