Do I need an onward ticket for a 60-day tourist visa in Thailand?
Am I right in thinking that for 60 day visa you need an onward ticket of some sort? Family all under 50, UK passports
Answer summary
Yes, for a 60-day tourist visa to Thailand, you are generally required to provide an onward ticket. This requirement is common as tourist visas typically necessitate proof of exit from Thailand within the allotted time. While some travelers have reported varying experiences, securing an onward ticket is advisable to ensure compliance with visa regulations.

I came to thailand with the same dilemma. I bought a return ticket, was not asked for confirmation by anyone, canceled the return when I obtained my visa extension.

you don't actually have to leave. You just need to show that you have a ticket out of Thailand. But you can still apply for the 30 day extension.Lara *******
