How does the extension of a Thai visa stamp work for a 60-day entry?

@Ralph ******

They dont “enforce” anything. they just dont want to risk paying the cost of taking you back should immigration refuse you entry.

@Rob ******

So, being refused when boarding isn’t enforcement? I think it is.

@Nippanut **************

It’s not as i have just done 7 months there & entered on a one way ticket 🙂

@Rob ******

Irrelevant. It's the law. He could be denied boarding

@Andy ***********

Irrelevant ? 😂 I’ve just just proven what he’s said is wrong.

And again you are wrong. There is no “Law” regarding onward travel from Thailand. Yes he could be denied boarding but each airline has a diffrent policy & at no point would he be arrested for not showing onward Travel. It is allso not an entry requirement from The Kingdom of Thailand to only allow entry to people with onward travel.

Stop spreading completely wrong misinformation🤚🏻

@Rob ******

you have proved nothing only because it worked for you. Prove of onward travel is required by a number of airlines. I have been asked by SAS KLM Thai Airways - not every time but they do ask

@Kim ********

Add China Southern to that list.

@Kim ********

Its quite clear in what i posted that i said airlines MAY require it & is not an official entry requirement by Thailand

@Rob ******

in your first answer you said incorrect to the statement that an onward travel ticket is necessary and your "proof" was that you were not asked . That was what I answered to. And incorrect it was not because some airlines require it. I see you have modified your opinion after this.

@Kim ********

an Onward ticket MAY be required by your airlinr but is not required by Thailand immigration & is defo not a “law”

@Rob ******

Immigration can deny entry, so there definitely must be a rule or law upon which they base their decision. And you are WRONG when you say there is no "law". There is! It is called SECTION 12 , and you can google for it "Thailand section 12". Section 12 describes situations when a person who wants to enter Thailand can be denied entry. You might not call it a "law" but SECTION 12 actually is a 12-points listed handbook of "rules"

@Rob ******

Re-read what you replied to. Steve said you'll need onward travel to BOARD YOUR FLIGHT. You said "incorrect". Now you're saying you MAY be required. Can you see the inconsistencies? Perhaps not. Never mind

@Rob ******

ok

@Rob ******

I've been asked to show onward ticket many times over the years. It is Thai law although seldom applied by immigration, but a person can be denied boarding which means a rush to book an onward flight. A Facebook post is not "proof" of anything

@Andy ***********

It’s not thai law at all you’re wrong 🤚🏻

@Rob ******

Best you advise the OP to take a screenshot of your comment and show it to the airline when he's denied boarding 😂😂😂

@Andy ***********

I & many others have entered Thailand without onward travel, thats not opinion its fact

@Rob ******

I don't know why people continue to argue this point. An immigration officer has the right to deny entry if he is not satisfied the person will leave Thailand within the period of stay. Airlines are aware of this so many won't allow boarding without seeing evidence of an outward journey, because they are responsible for returning the person back to the point of origin. Sure, we're all aware you may not be asked, but there's a possibility you will. My own experiences I find Qatar at Berlin always asks for proof, Singapore Airlines in Sydney always ask. It's hit and miss. I regularly drive at 160km/hr between Bangkok and Rayong. Never been booked, but I'm not going to tell people "hey it's never happened to me, so you'll be ok". People just need to be aware

@Jim *******

Yes, exactly. I find the airlines are getting stricter.

@Rob ******

I & many others have been asked to show onward travel, that's not opinion it's a fact.
