Hi,

 

I just arrived in Singapore from Japan, waiting for

my connecting flight to Malaysia now.

 

When I checked in at Kansai Airport, the counter

attendant first asked me if I had got an onward

ticket out of Malaysia, and I answered no, adding

that I'd then go to Thailand by land. Do you know

what she asked me then? 'Do you have a credit

card on you now?' I answered yes and then she

asked me to buy one with the card if I should end

up having to buy it at the worse-case scenario

when I landed at Malaysia. She let me check in,

and I didn't sign any paper on that, though.

 

Have you ever been asked to show an onward

ticket upon arrival in Malaysia by air?

 

Thank you in advance.

I was asked for onward tickets in Portugal, Switzerland and France before covid with a US passport. 

This onward ticket business is a load of nonsense, when like the OP, you intend your exit to the country, to be by land.. but the dumb and blind seems to insist on these stupid rules - thankfully, this is not the case for Cambodia - yet.... so yes, you are wise to abide by these nonsense rules...

Philippines no onward or out bound ticket no entry , as you can not arrive by land however you can extend your tourist visas internally for up to 3 years prior to having leave the country for 1 or 2 days up to you, once you arrive back must have outbound ticket known as throw away ticket. Starts all over again 1 month on arrival and re extend your visa 1 month next is 2 months after you can apply 6 months visa + etc,. prior to expiry of 30 day . Vietnam no onward ticket necessary when I was  there recently as you can travel by land to Cambodia etc, apply online for e visa and pay as an Australian we are not visa exempt or upon arrival my guess our participation in VN war

I landed in Malaysia today, and the IO didn't

ask me for an onward ticket.

 

I'm going to enter Thailand by land because I 

want to go by train.

Clearly you don't require any onward flight.
