Hi all,

I’m looking for some advice regarding the pre booking of flights to Thailand.

I’m planning to visit under a 60 day tourist visa and then later apply for a 30 day visa extension. From what I see/read it seems getting a 30 day extension is pretty straightforward and rarely rejected.

I need to show immigration on arrival that I have flights booked to return to my home country so if I were to prebook my return flight based on my plans to stay 90 days, would that create any issues with immigration when I first arrive at the airport.

I have just obtained my Non O based on volunteering and will be flying from Singapore to Chiang Rai vía Bangkok this Saturday.

Will I still be required proof of accommodation, 20k baht and outbound flight?

If so, would a bus ticket out of Thailand suffice and how accurate does the exchange rate has to be to show the equivalent of 20k baht if I don’t actually want to exchange the money to baht beforehand?
