There are several companies that will sell you a "Ticket" like Flyonward but I heard several people having problems getting their confirmation within the last two weeks and they do not reply to any mails. The Facebook Site is down too. I suppose, people who wanted to scam immigration law, got scammed themselves ;-)
Now contrary to common believe those websites do not sell any tickets, they just sell you a PNR
A PNR is a database record on the airline's computer that holds the information about you and your flights. But crucially it is a separate system to ticketing, which are financial documents.
Many of those on-line companies are generating a Personal Name Register not a ticketed booking, which may fall foul of a very strict interpretation of the rules as the sole purpose is, to avoid compliance to immigration law.
There are other websites where you can print your own tickets, fake tickets. Should you get caught with one of them, you might even be prosecuted for trying to enter a country with a fake document.
The only legal way is to have a valid onward ticket, PNR is not.
You could always buy a 1 year open return, then keep changing dates and finally, use it or refund it. Why scam the system and in the end pay more, if you can use the system and get something for it ;-)

- Thanks for Clarifying (obscuring ;-) ) this issue. Will see if I find out more about the way it's done as with all the motorbike accidents here, the question always arises again.
Although I can find official references to the minimum validity of the Passport, I can't find any information about how many pages or space there has to be left in your passport.
Robert Lagas - If you have been in hospital and intend to leave the country within 7 days from being dismissed from the hospital, from my knowledge and understanding, one does not need an extension of stay nor pay overstay fine. Just have to go with the hospital certification to the immigration office at the border, before going through passport check.
