I'll be applying for a tourist visa to Thailand next week at the embassy in Hanoi. According to the website, I'll have to show proof of a round-trip ticket but I can only get an initial 2 months extendable to 3 months while in Thailand. So my question is, if I need to show proof of having purchased a two-way ticket, can the return ticket be dated three months after the arrival ticket, or are they even requiring this when applying for a visa? I don't remember it being a requirement the last time applied for one.
TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a tourist visa to Thailand, a round-trip ticket is typically required, demonstrating proof of exiting the country within the visa's validity. Generally, for a tourist visa granting a stay of up to 60 days, you must provide evidence of a ticket out of Thailand that matches the visa duration. It is advisable to check the latest requirements as they may vary and can differ from previous experiences.
