Iam a new Zealander coming to Thailand on a 60 day visiting do i need to show a return ticket out of there as i will probably do a land crossing into Vietnam
Answer summary
When entering Thailand as a New Zealander on a 60-day tourist visa, it is recommended to have proof of onward travel, such as a return ticket. While some airlines may require this before boarding, policies can vary. It's best to check with your airline prior to your flight to avoid complications. Additionally, travelers have suggested various options for securing a ticket, including purchasing a refundable ticket or using services that allow for the rental of a ticket, should you not have a fixed departure date.

The airline will mostlikely ask you a proof of ongoing travel booking before to board you on their plane

If you are flying in without a visa they are looking at onward travel as are the airline. Does doing a land border run get round this problem

Each time I have left Auckland they have asked for a return ticket at check in, I have a long stay visa which doesn't require one, sometimes that's accepted straight away, other times they make a call, or a supervisor more aware will complete check in.

Various airlines.

Check with your airline, they might deny boarding if you don't have a ticket out

There are no land crossings between Vietnam and Thailand, because there are no land borders shared between these 2 countries.

Are you transiting via Laos or Cambodia??

Better to be safe and have onward travel. Any ticket will do and there are many services that let you rent a ticket.

ASK your airline if they will require you to show PROOF of your flight ✈️ departing Thailand within the First 60 days of your arrival into Thailand.
