My mother is coming out to Bangkok to visit me in May/June of this year and her passport expires in October. Some countries require that a passport has 6 months validity to enter their country. As my mother will not need a tourist visa (UK national staying in Thailand for only 2 weeks), will she be allowed to enter Thailand on a passport that has only 4-5 months validity left?

She will need to get a new passport. Thailand requires 6 months remaining on the passport. That is one of the things airlines check for.

Yes, Joe is right. The requirement is a passport with at least 6 month validity. She would probably not come further then check-in at the airport. She will need a new passport.

Even with a return ticket and no visa?

Yes.

I did a visa run last year on my old passport and got talking to the immigration guy. He confirmed that they want to see a minimum of 6 months on a passport.

The good thing is that when you renew early you get the extra time added to the new passport.
