I bought a one way ticket to Thailand from the USA. I didn't buy a return ticket because I don't know when I want to return.

I have heard of people having problems because they did not have a return ticket.

Has anyone had a problem due to getting a one way ticket?

Do you need to have proof of onward travel when entering with a DTV visa? Sorry if this has been covered before.

Hi just seen a post where a guy was questioned at Heathrow because he had more than 60 days on his return flight . I've booked 85 day return 60 days plus my 30 day extension. Can I expect problems at check in ? Thanks again to this group .

Hi. On my last visit to Thailand in June the immigration officer at Phuket airport asked me if this would be my last visit this year. I think because I had already entered Thailand twice this year. Will I be able to enter again this year or must I wait until it resets on January 1st ? T.I.A

Just Check in at Frankfurt Airport for Bangkok ...i stay 114 days No Visa...but they accepted my valid Laos Visa AS Proof of onward travel

Hello, first time posting. I never been to Thailand so all this is a learning process. I bought a one way ticket to Thailand and plan to use miles to come home to USA. My question is , I know we get 60 days and a 30 day extension. I don't know how long I am staying. May be 30, 60 or 90 days. Do I need a return trip to enter? And if so is it best to set it for 60 days or 90 days? What's my best way to handle this? Like I said, I am new to all this. Any advise is appreciated.

I have been issued a DTV visa, which is valid for five years, allowing me to stay six months per visit. Is a one-way ticket acceptable, or must I book a round-trip ticket? As I will be traveling to Thailand for business, I need to confirm the entry requirements for my initial trip.

Please help me to understand the 'onward travel' requirement when flying to Thailand.

We are always advised that the airline could ask u to show an onward travel ticket at check in time in the airport. The reason being that if u r denied entry on arrival in Bkk they are required to fly you back home.

So what use is having an onward travel ticket within your visa stamp date of usually 60 days if u r denied entry on arrival?

Maybe I am missing something here.

Hello,

This is kind of urgent so would appreciate your advice!

I am a Brit and am due to from London to Bangkok on Wednesday 14 Oct and am scheduled to fly back 16 January.

I have just gone in to check in for my Eva Air flight, but it won't let me proceed without uploading travel documents and is indicating I needing a paper travel visa to enter the country.

I was under the impression from previous research that, as a UK citizen, I could enter Thailand and apply for a visa there, which I could then apply to extend later while in the country, or leave and do a visa run.

This situation is somewhat urgent and unexpected , so I would really appreciate any advice on what to do.

If necessary, I would be happy to get an e-visa in advance but is this possible within 48 hours?

Many thanks in advance!

- UPDATE -

Thank you all so much for your helpful replies - I truly appreciate it. I was able to check in and now I will keep my fingers crossed at the airport, but your messages have been very reassuring to someone who was in a panic. Thank you again! 💙

I’m travelling to Thailand next month with my Thai wife and son . We are staying 6 months and I know all the visa side of it. Now the question is - I’m travelling On a one way ticket and have done many times before but I’m also hearing that the airline can refuse you as you don’t have a ticket to return or onwards to anywhere else.
