Uk to Thailand (one way ticket)

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

Uk to Thailand (one way ticket)

Post by Drizzle »

My friend is heading from the UJ to Thailand then to KH.
Does anyone know if they need to have a thai visa to enter Thailand due to only having the one way ticket?

If your friend only has a one way ticket there's a chance your friend won't be allowed on the plane.

My guess is the UK is in the Thai visa exemption scheme so no visa is required for short stays.

with a visa i'd say 50% chance of being asked, looking to enter using visa exempt 90% chance .

for piece of mind get a refundable onward ticket out of Thailand ( less then $100 bangkok-pp) or a throw away ticket (les than$60_
or use, https://bookonwardticket.com/

Airlines in the UK normally check that you have either a visa, or a booked flight out of Thailand before the visa-exemption period ends

An onward ticket to anywhere is fine.

The title of the thread, and the first post are slightly at odds.

Is this a trip with a stay in Bangkok, with a flight already booked from Bangkok to KH (Cambodia?)
or
a trip to Cambodia(?) connecting through in Bangkok?
