The airline will ask you before you board your first flight. Our airline did not ask to see proof, only asked if we had one. We purchased “onward tickets” ahead of time to be safe. It’s only $12/person and saves you from having to purchase an actual airline ticket

They told us that technically we could just allow our children to overstay since there’s no fine you have to pay.. BUT it will be marked in their passports. The best solution that we could come up with was a multiple entry permit & do border runs for the children so that they don’t have an overstay. Our children are old enough to be put in school though so they’ll have their own education visa. I saw that you said your child is only 1. The school we were looking at has a nursery program and our youngest is 2. They told us with putting our youngest in nursery at the school, they can do a visa for him as well. So while a language school can’t do it, you may have options with an international school

thank you! any recommendations for online, besides marketplace? Like local sites? We’ve definitely found some just by walking. Looking for a house, but most of the agents focus on condos/high rises
