As a Canadian myself, I’ve been asked every single time about an onward ticket. The only time I wasn’t asked was when I had a visa purchased before I left Canada. I have always bought a cheap ticket to Vietnam. Sometimes I’ve used it, other times I didn’t. It’s not worth the hassle at check in.

I’m a huge fan of the way this group is run. Straight to the point answers. Always correct information given. Thanks to all the moderators in this group.

yes I seen that reply. I was almost certain I seen a post before, somewhere, where a Canadian tried this method and was unsuccessful doing so. I will contact the Embassy of Canada to find out for sure.

I want to thank the both of you for all your useful information. You’ve opened my eyes to a few options I wasn’t aware of. I appreciate the help.

I’m not of retirement age as of yet, though I am “retired”. I’m only 46.

@Ellie ******
l’m pretty sure I seen a post somewhere about a Canadian trying to do that and they were unsuccessful doing so. I could be wrong though. I will look into it though Ellie. Thanks for that information.

I honestly want to go to school to learn Thai. I spend a lot of time with my wives family and I would like to be able to communicate with them all, not have my wife translate everything.

I appreciate that information though. It will come in handy after my year in school.

after the 60 day extension I will be going to school for a year to learn Thai. I’m just trying to see how long I can be here without having to have money tied up in a Thailand bank. Once I wear out all other options I’ll go the 400k in a bank account way.

after two hours there this morning, we got it all sorted. All paper work is now in order. We just have to show up together again. Thanks James.

Trevor Wilson you’re welcome. Enjoy Thailand and I hope all works out with you and your girlfriend.

yes, you’re able to just land and get the 45 day visa exempt with a British passport. No need to apply for this.
