Hello all, are confirmed flight tickets required to apply? and do they ask for a return flight ticket as well? or would an Itinerary suffice?
Answer summary
The necessity of confirmed flight tickets for applying for a visa in Thailand varies by embassy. Some users have reported that they were never asked for flight or hotel bookings, while others noted that the requirement might depend on the specific embassy. Generally, it's not mandatory to have a confirmed flight ticket, and only an itinerary may suffice, though you must declare an arrival date in your visa application.

No, it is not a requirement. But you have to input an arrival date in the application. You don't have to actually arrive on that date, it's just a legacy field from other visa type applications.
