ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi Rob and Tod, I’ve been working in Thailand for over 1 year. My extension expired and due to incomplete documents I had to exit and get a new non-b. My work remit is valid and my question is once I return with my new non-b do I still need to show a return ticket, because I won’t be leaving the country since I work here. Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary

A user, who has been working in Thailand for over a year, is concerned about showing a return ticket when entering the country with a new Non-B visa after having to exit due to incomplete documents for their extension. A comment suggests that it's unlikely for anyone holding a Non-Immigrant Type visa to be asked for onward travel.

There is almost no chance of you being asked for anything when entering the country on your new Non-B visa.

I have read few if any reports of people on Non-Immigrant Type visas being asked for onward travel.
