What are the current visa options and extension policies for tourists in Thailand?

Cliff *********

I have been going to Thailand for 15 years using it as a hub for Asian travel. So 50+ times in and out….

In the past few years, about 50% of the time either the airline or immigration ask about exit flights…..

So be prepared is my motto.

Do I need a confirmed return flight ticket to enter Thailand on a tourist e-visa?

Cliff *********

I travel to Thailand frequently on visa exempt.

~50% of the time the airline staff or immigration will ask if you have a ticket out. Sometimes they look at it, sometimes not.

50% of the time no one cares.

I cannot speak to the visa issues.

What visa do I need for a second Thailand visit after using the 30-day exemption?

Cliff *********

You are overthinking this.

Come in for 10 days and enjoy yourselves.

Go out .

Come back in for 25 days and enjoy Thailand even more.

There is no such thing as the limit you mentioned.

You will not look like you are trying to live in Thailand.

No worries.

Kap!

Why do you have to stay for a year to see how you like Thailand?

Get 2 month tourist visa and extend 1 month.

By then you will know how you like it.
