You’re not clear about what you’re doing. 4 visa free trips of a couple weeks at at time at a time over the year or 4 visa free trips to the max time then leaving for 2 nights and returning? If it’s the latter, they are quite likely to conclude that you’re living here and should have a proper visa

I just came voA No onward ticket. Airline didn’t ask. Immigration asked me. I said I’m going with a friend to Langkawi on a boat and showed a picture of boat. They shrugged and stamped.

I did that after my work permit and annual exit re-entry ended. I also did it after my retirement permit and annual exit re-entry. Only comment coming back in was 'you have no more visa now'

Depends on your nationality. I went to KL after my visa finished and came back on visa free 60 days. Plus 30 extension if heeded. Nationality can be checked on govt website

It will depend on your airline. Some airlines won’t jet you board without an onward ticket. I just flew in with air Asia and there was no issue with them . Nobody asked I’d had a visa before. Immigration just asked me how long I was staying and where I was going next.

oh goody another chilled response 🤣😃. I don’t think anything of you. I don’t have a clue ego you are. I made a generalized comment based on my experience. It did by seem like you like Thailand very much. I’ve been coming here for over 25 years and at one point lived here for 6 years. Never met anything other than helpful people. Immigration here I’ve found super friendly at the airport and in town. Never seen a lack of transparency on the visa requirements. So that’s my experience. All the best

I just did visa free to Phuket.. Received 60 day stamp. They asked how long I was staying. I said 58 dats. They asked if I was going back to UK. I said no, visiting Oman. Was never asked for a ticket. Have never been asked for a ticket by Thai immigration at the airport in 20 years of coming here. It’s usually an airline policy. who request to see onward travel. Earlier this year to go to New Zealand I did have to get an ETA in advance and for that I did have to have onward travel. I just eve to Malaysia and before I left I had to register including listing my accommodation and my return date. I don’t find Thailand difficult compared to many countries just to land in :). If you need a different kind of visa for whatever reason, just follow the rules, they aren’t hard. Try being Thai or other nationalities wanting to go the other way. You’ll find out what hard is.
