TLDR : Answer Summary

When entering Thailand with a DTV visa, you typically do not need to provide proof of onward travel. Several commenters have confirmed their personal experiences indicating that having a valid visa should suffice. However, individual airline policies may vary, and there is a possibility that airline staff or immigration officers might request additional documentation at their discretion.

No (holding any visa 'should' be enough but that doesnt mean every airline has got the memo.. I have had to have airline check in staff consult managers even with a non imm one time.

And of course immigration officers have full discretion, if they feel they dont want to let you in, they can often find a reason.
