Can I arrive in Thailand on a one-way ticket with a non-immigrant O-A visa for retirement?

Roger *********

We fly here regularly, from the UK, with a return ticket for several months in advance. They always ask about it. We just say there is an annual visa in the passports, which they just glance at, and all is fine. Had the same thing with a one way ticket from Penang a couple of weeks ago. No problem.

We used to go in regularly. Don't know if she is still there, but a lovely lady called Sue used to be there who couldn't have been more helpful.

What paperwork does my husband need for his upcoming trip to Thailand to avoid entry denial?

Roger *********

If he is working somewhere else, might be worth getting a letter from his employer to say that he works month on/month off or whatever the arrangements are to explain his "commuting".

What happens if you get questioned by immigration regarding return tickets in Thailand?

Roger *********

They are not telling you to go home. You can choose to not enter Thailand and go somewhere else. They can say "if you want to enter Thailand, you must meet these conditions", which might include a ticket home.

Is it better to apply for a retirement visa in the UK before moving to Phuket?

Roger *********

Get it in the UK. We just moved funds from our joint account into 2 separate accounts and got a statement each to use. Police record requirement is handled centrally (I think it was Sussex Police from memory).

Where can I get a medical certificate for an O-A visa in Southern UK?

Roger *********

My wife went to her NHS GP and he charged her £30. Mine refused (different practice) and I ended up paying a fortune to have it privately.
