Given that, it makes sense to always keep it legit with your proof of onward travel. Purchase an open/refundable ticket and always be ready to provide it (at the consulate and at immigration on the way in)

Glen Yeah, I asked about that specifically and they said in the case of a visa exemption/SETV upon entry into the country at immigration, they've never heard of anyone asking for proof of accommodation at the airport.

I think when applying for the SETV/METV at the embassies abroad, they'll ask, yeah. Also possibly entries for other types of visas maybe? I'm not sure. But I specifically asked this question and that's what I was told regarding exemptions and SETV only. If I'm mistaken/wrong, my apologies.

I've never been asked for either upon entry.

I was told in this group that they don't ask for accommodation proof in this case. Just the 20k thb and onward travel, IF they decide to ask

Oh one more question on this, if you happen to know
@Tod ********
. Is this ed visa extension something that could be done at the Bumrungrad Hospital business center instead of the main immigration location?

I did my recent 30 day extension there and it was a pleasurable experience. If this

extension can be done there, that would be awesome.

Ah, thank you. This explains why I've seen 60 and 90 days in different areas in my research. Geez haha

So these extensions (after the initial 90 days) are done every 90 days, or every 60 days? 90 days sounds great.
