@Stuart ********

Have always needed a TM30 in Bangkok

@Andy ***********

for retirement, you can extend every year without having to leave the country.

The DVT visa gives you one extension and then you need to leave and re enter.

I have written tourism all the times I have extended.

@Toufic *******

The airline is in theory obligated to check for a outbound ticket, and if you do not have one if they ask you will be denied check-in.

Many are lucky and don't get asked, and many are not lucky and do get asked.

@Glenn ****

Not unlikely at all.

Why even risk it?

@Toufic *******

Then look up the requirements for Visa Exemption for Swedish Citizens.

@Toufic *******

What is your passport nationality?

@Toufic *******

If you're just going and getting a Visa Exemption, no visa.

Just get a dummy ticket at or something like that.

@Toufic *******

You will need a outbound ticket either way.

If you do not have one you may be denied boarding in Sweden.

The application process for Tourist Visa will tell you if you need outbound ticket when you apply for a Tourist Visa.

If yo are a Swedish Citizen, you apply here

No.

You coming here with a Swedish passport gives you a Visa Exemption of 30 days.

You do not pay for anything on arrival, but you will need to show proof of outbound flight from Thailand within 30 days.

You can extend these 30 days at a Immigration office in Thailand, 1900 for another 30 days. But after this, you need to leave.

If you want 3 months in Thailand, apply for a Tourist Visa ( or Non O for Retirement if you are 50+ and fill the other requirements ) BEFORE you come here.

A normal Tourist Visa gives you 60 days when you arrive, and can be extended with another 30 days for a total of 90 days.
