Hello All.... I'm currently in the UK and hold a one year Non Immigrant O ME visa. I am about to fly back to Bangkok. Will I need to show evidence of onward travel or a return ticket....? I haven't got a re-entry permit with it being a multi-entry visa. .... Thanks...
Answer summary
If you hold a Non-Immigrant O ME multiple-entry visa and it is valid, you do not need to provide evidence of onward travel or a return ticket when entering Thailand. You can simply show your valid visa during check-in and at immigration.

As a multiple entry Non-Immigrant visa holder, you don't need to have proof of onward travel or a re-entry permit as long as your visa itself is valid when you enter Thailand.

NOPE...no proof of your flight departing Thailand is needed.

Just point out the Thai Non O multi-entry Visa STAMP or EVISA printed out...to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand.

, a multiple entry visa would be a sticker, not a stamp if you apply for it at the consulate in person (not eVisa PDF)..

Mine is a printed PDF E-visa… I’ve entered twice on it so far…
