you seemingly have zero idea how the IATA rule regarding the airline's responsibility works. You should stop posting nonsense

@Si ******

no, lung cancer and a heart failure

wrong, the onward travel proof is law! It's a requirement for tourists entering Thailand. It's just that Immigration at the borders don't care much. It's the Thai embassy and consulate who can require an onward travel proof for an application to a 60-days tourist visa (and some embassies actually ask!) and it's a law, which is under the responsibility of the Thai Immigration, who however have shifted this responsibility to the Airlines, who need to make sure if a traveller holds a visa or not and in case he doesn't hold one, will most obvioulsy demand the onward travel proof. Because if a traveller get's denied entry, the airline will get fined (up to 10.000.- US Dollar) and has to transport the traveller back to the origin airport

@Todd ********

it was a justified question, because a "visa exempt entry" is NOT a "real visa". It's no visa at all

I knew somebody who started a tattoo school in Thailand with his Thai wife and the brother in law, and became a Dollar-millionaire in less than 8 years. However he passed away a few years ago at the age of 64

15.000.- USD

@XNatell *****************

correct. let's wait

this would be a nice step, but it won't happen. Thai government might rather rise the 800.000.- THB requirement to 1 million in the future

@Barry *******

😂🤣 lucky only IF it was correct what Kool Breez wrote. The financial requirement for these "grandfathers" has always been 200.000.- THB and not just twenty-thousand Baht 😂

you are absolutely right. However he is not trying to circumvene any law. It is the other way around: He sends his friend with a suitcase full of goods he is not allowed to import, on a trip, and asks him to declare it at the Customs point at the Airport. He bears the assumption, that Customs will clear it and just make his friend pay some duty fee and let him pass. That won't happen. Customs will confiscate the goods if he can't show an import permission from the FDA
