did you enter Thailand on the 60 day visa exemption..?

@Wendy ********

i agree. Technically it may not be a visa, but you have to get your passport stamped at the border. That itself works like a entry permit/authorization. I am aware of this, as my wife is Thai too.

Of course you will need a Vietnam visa to enter their country. That goes for you & your girlfriend, irrespective of which passport you may have.

that's a good solution..

@James ********

the airline doesnt require it. The return flight ticket is asked by the thai immigration when you are entering. I have been in and out almost 4-5 times last year, and each time they asked for it at Bangkok airport immigrations. Then it was 15 days visa on arrival..

previous occassions when i got the 15 day visa on arrival, they always asked me to show the return flight ticket.

the purpose behind this new visa regulation was to promote investment and for people to bring in their money, resulting in increased expenditure within Thailand. The economy has not been doing well in the past year, and it needed a boost. This was one way to make foreigners bring in their money and spend it in Thailand. The more the merrier..!!

@Robert ****

do i need to show a return flight ticket to get the 60 days visa on arrival..?

@James ********
