ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello , I have searched the group to find answers but I am not really clear as I have seen many responses. 

I plan to arrive in Thailand July 1

I want to go ahead and apply for myself and my children DTV now (going the medical route)

I will have confirmation from doctor but I am confused during application will they ask me for an address I am staying at in Thailand . I do not have an address as I plan to just book a hotel for 1 week until I have my actual location I plan to live at. 

So the question is do I have to book hotel now or can I just find one and put their name and address for the purpose of application?I do have my flight booked already as well.

2. How long after may I apply for my children ? And does each child need their own application ?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is planning to arrive in Thailand on July 1 and wants to apply for a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) for themselves and their children. They are uncertain about providing an address for the application because they plan to stay in a hotel temporarily. The response confirms that they may use a hotel address for the application and notes that applications should not be submitted more than three months in advance. It is also stated that each child will require their own application.

Which consulate? You can just put a hotel. You're applying too early, three months in advance max. You can apply for your dependent children as soon as your approval completes you then supply your visa number and choose dependent in the drop-down box each child will need a separate application and a separate fee. You can do them all from your online evisa account. Dependent applications are typically approved pretty quickly

Do you need to book your flight and accommodation before applying for the DTV visa in Thailand?
