One way ticket and Non-O visa.

[beeyonder]

Hi everyone. ????

 

I would like to know if the immigration can refuse an enter from an airport if I only have one way ticket ?

 

Also, does Thai Airways or any companies can refuse me to board ?

A simple plane ticket for Malaysia for example could be enough to avoid any refusal?

 

I would be curious to know if any of you have already had this kind of experience.

Thank you.

It is the airline that would refuse you. If you have an non-o, you do not need a return ticket out. Just show your visa to the airline.

Thank you. ????

 

If I have a out ticket airplane for any borders country ? That's will allow me to embark from my country to Thailand with a one way ticket ?

IF you have an Non-O visa. No outbound ticket is required. If you do not have a visa, an outbound ticket is required to anywhere.

I want to add. If you are getting a ticket to another country, check the requirements of that country for entree and exit.

As already pointed out....

With a non O visa the airline will not request an onward flight.

This type of question comes up often moreso flying without visa.

For peace of mind I always suggest having internet access at departure.

In the event of any issue a person can step away from check in and buy cheapest confirmed flight in a minute.

 

Having stated that you will not have an issue.

So okay, no worry if I have a Non-O. Thanks guys. ????

I recently returned to Thailand from Europe, where my Thai Airways ticket had me only entering Thailand (with no return Thai Airways ticket) outside of Europe.  I had read one really should have a throw-away ticket, so in fact I did buy one, which I posted about previous on this forum ( I bought a legitimate Krabi to Kuala Lumpur one way ticket for 740 Thai baht.)

 

In Frankfurt, Thai-Airways did not ask for my return ticket. BUT I suspect they saw my old Type-OA visa (in my passport), so my old permission to stay, and saw (an no longer valid re-entry permit) and mistakenly thought I had an appropriate re-entry permit, which I did not have.

 

In Bangkok, the Thai Immigration Officer (IO) asked for my ticket. I passed him my boarding pass, and I was told, "NO - ticket".  I did not now which ticket he wanted? The ticket to fly to Thailand, or my ticket showing me leaving Thailand.  I was rummaging through my backpack to get both tickets, during which the IO ws talking to my wife (in Thai).

 

I have no idea what was said, but then the Thai IO waved me through, and I did not have to show a ticket.  I asked my wife a week later what was the discussion she had with the IO, and she could not remember it.

In the past few days, a friend of mine entered Thailand from Vietnam with a one way ticket (Vietnam Airlines). He was ask to show a departure from Thailand ticket.  He was entering Thailand Visa Exempt (as his previous Type-OA visa permission to stay had expired).  He had a throw-away ticket (legitimate) that he showed them, and they allowed him to board.
