Tourist Visa from USA.....................................................

[Makoshark]

  I'm 73 living in NYC and returning back to BKK after 2 years absence.

 

Current Visa Req's needed:

• 1. Passport or travel document with validity not less than 6 months.
• 2. Photograph of the applicant, taken within the past six months.
• 3. Evidence of travel from Thailand (air ticket paid in full).
• 4. Evidence of adequate finance (20,000 Baht per person and 40,000 Baht per family).

 

Notice #3.

 

My plan is utilize onwardticket.com for my ticket out of BKK. I will apply for my non-O visa during the 60 days in BKK.

 

My question is this?  If arriving BKK August 11, what date/country do you recommend I buy the ticket for to show immigration for my Visa here in the USA in order to apply (#3)?

 

Thanks

fly in on a visa exempt ( free) 30 days, use onwardflights dot com for a flight out 28 days after you land<
apply for ur non O visa at immigration any day you want after you land
Its the Airlines that ask for ticket onwards, not immigration

If you do have a tourist visa airlines usually dont ask for an onward ticket

When flying with a tourist visa (TR60) no onward ticket is required.

If a local Non-O visa is possible (not possible for all categories) you have to do it straight after entering the country as normally 15 working days are required for this.
