DijuriDo Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Hello All - I'm planning on going to Thailand with a Tourist Visa and I was wondering if there are any issues with customs/airlines if you land without a return ticket. Does the Tourist Visa clear that issue? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Arriving with a tourist visa you will have no problem as you will not be asked for a return or onward ticket. -- Maestro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCasper Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Have never being asked to show a return ticket coming into Thailand. Just write a Flight Number on the Card. The Airlines have asked to see a ticket to get out of Singapore but not Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusgorman Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 More than likely you will be asked when trying to check in why you do not have an onward ticket or indeed return ticket. They have asked me and hassled me over this coming here on one way ticket with non-immigrant B. I think the other two replies on here maybe refering to when you get here, indeed unlikely the immigration officer will check, but i guarantee you that when you check in they will question it.

Mario2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Thai immigration never ask to see the airline ticket. But many airlines do ask to see a return ticket. Also if you want an extension of your tourist visa Immigration might ask to see a return ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? So even if I have a Tourist Visa to enter Thailand, the airline may request proof of an onward or return ticket? Has anyone ever ran into problems with this?

lopburi3 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Yes many people have been asked - in fact I had to go to station manager level with Thai airlines on one occasion. Normally it is the check-in agent and allowed at next higher level. Even with a one year extension of stay/re-entry permit I have been questioned but that did not take long. It very much depends on the airline and the agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ovenman Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 So even if I have a Tourist Visa to enter Thailand, the airline may request proof of an onward or return ticket? They shouldn't but if the airline is not interpreting the rules correctly, they might. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
