Will be heading to BKk in Jan, staying 3 months on TR (60 day + 30ext).  Been many times and never checked for POOT, but is this required for COE?  And if so can my return flight be 90 days out, or must be 60?

Answer summary

The question discusses traveling to Bangkok with a TR visa for three months and asks whether a Proof of Onward Travel (POOT) is required for the Certificate of Entry (COE). One commenter confirmed that the Thai consulate indicated POOT is only checked for incoming flights when issuing the COE.
