No Need I usually book one way and have never been asked yet. Ron Angel This one has 20,958 members And as I said from personal experience I have never been asked about a return ticket. I travel on an Aussie Passport so I get 30 days in which to notify my departure date. I leave on or before the 30 days is up. Its possible other countries passport holders would need to show departure documents but as the questioner didn't specify where their friend is coming from , your negative remarks are retarded at best.
