Is it true, when applying for a 60 day Thai tourist visa (australian passport) FROM THE PHILIPPINES you need an onward air ticket for say 60th day, even though you will later extend for 30 days? ie wish to enter thailand with only an onward ticket for 90th day, not both.
TLDR : Answer Summary
This conversation discusses whether an Australian passport holder applying for a 60-day Thai tourist visa from the Philippines needs to provide an onward ticket for the 60th day, especially if they intend to extend their visa for an additional 30 days. The consensus indicates that while the airline might require proof of onward travel when boarding, the Thai consulate might not strictly enforce the same requirement. Several participants suggest alternatives, such as showing a bus ticket or making online bookings to demonstrate onward travel. Ultimately, it is advised to check with both the consulate and the airline for the specific requirements.
