Do I need to show proof of a domestic flight to Chiang Mai when entering Thailand on a visa exemption?

I believe that the OP has the answers needed for her question. We wish her safe travels and a pleasant stay in Thailand.

When we last arrived into bangkok I was asked for my boarding pass from arriving flight (first time)and proof of departure ticket out of Thailand( also first time).I had no overstays in my travels to Thailand as a sidebar.

These are the common found requirements for the 30 days extension of stay at your local Thai Immigration office for.

Thai Immigration does not require you showing a ticket FROM BKK Suvarnabhumi Airport Bangkok to Chiang Mai upon arrival into Thailand if that's your destination.

However your airline may ask to see proof your ticket departing Thailand within the 30 days of your arrival into Thailand. As you are entering Visa Exempt.

Thai Immigration can also ask to see PROOF of your flight departing Thailand within the 30 days of your arrival as Visa Exempt. BUT not likely unless you have a recent history of staying in Thailand.

Your Visa Exempt Entry into Thailand is eligible for a 30 day extension of stay at your local Thai Immigration office for 1900 Thai baht. As you have been in Thailand before, I assume that you know the process of getting the 30 days extension of stay.

But this time be sure to have a TM30 address registration on file with Thai Immigration as it's NOW required to get any extension of stay at your local Thai Immigration office.
