Hi I'm applying for tourist evisa and

it's asking for travel documents but i don't want to book flights before I get my visa approved. Can I screen shot flight itinerary but not confirmation?

Thank you

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is uncertain about providing travel documents for their tourist eVisa to Thailand without having booked flights. They wonder if a screenshot of an itinerary suffices instead of a confirmed booking. Community comments indicate that the eVisa process allows for intended flight dates without needing a confirmed booking, suggesting that flight numbers may be sufficient and highlighting that certain nationalities may not even require a visa.

For an METV you typically require 3 flights, one in, one out within 60 days followed by a flight in beyond 60 days

depending on how often/how many times you're intending to enter and exit Thailand, the Multiple Entry Tourist Visa that

mentioned might be your best option to avoid being questioned by Thai Immigration about why you (might) be entering so often, but, as UK passport holder, you can just arrive at a Thai Airport and be stamped in free on the "Visa Exempt" scheme. That doesn't have any fees attached to it as a Tourist Visa does & no applying in advance.

I need to get an METV as I go for about 6 months every year and got hassle by immigration last time. Presume the ticket out if you have to show one can be across a landborder to a neighbouring country?

the e-visa asks for your "intended flight dates" so obviously, you don't need to upload an already booked flight, unless the Thai embassy or consulate sends you an email and asks you for proof of tickets
