I am going to come in January on the 45 day visa exemption then get the extension.
Just confirming and apologies if this has been asked but in regards to my airline do they need to see my ticket for leaving on day 45 then show say boarding flight an exit ticket to a neighbouring country on day 45 or say a throw away ticket or can it be the end date of the extension itself. Or is the throw away ticket not needed. Hopefully it makes sense
TLDR : Answer Summary
When entering Thailand on a 45-day visa exemption, it is generally advisable to have an onward ticket out of the country, even though some travelers have reported not being asked for one. Airlines may require proof of onward travel before boarding, especially for long-haul flights, as it is their responsibility to return you if immigration denies entry. While it's possible to adjust your itinerary after entering Thailand, it’s safer to have an as-yet unused ticket when checking in. Reservation services for onward tickets exist, allowing for purchase without the need to travel.
