What documents are required when entering Thailand on a DTV visa?
Has anyone been recently asked to show return air ticket, hotel/accommodation, purpose of stay, etc., by IO while entering Thailand on DTV visa?
Answer summary
The conversation revolves around the possibility of being asked by immigration officers (IO) in Thailand for documents such as a return air ticket, accommodation proof, and the purpose of stay when entering on a DTV visa. While accounts vary, it's noted that although rare, such requests can happen, particularly by airlines enforcing their own boarding rules regarding onward travel. Immigrants with valid DTV visas are generally not expected to face issues unless they lack necessary documentation.

immigration can ask anything they want. Airlines follow rules which are in front of them at check-in. Depending on your nationality the Airline might ask for onward or return ticket but this is not identical for all nationalities. Immigration can ask anything but are unlikely to refuse you if you have acceptable answers to questions. Proof helps. If you have a DTV you have already proved most things at application and so its highly unlikely they will question you further. Thats the whole point of a visa. However i have no direct experience of DTV use and potential questions.

rare but happens. Your airline might not allow you to board as well without proof of onward travel is more common.Make sure you have the 3 things required on entry.
