Hey guys, as a fellow digital nomad I have no permanent residency, I've been living in Airbnbs for over a year now, is this going to be a problem when applying for the DTV? Does anyone know what I can use as a proof of address since I have nothing to show?
Answer summary

Community members suggest alternatives for proof of address, such as temporary hotel bookings, using an Airbnb address, or employing other documents like a driver's license. Some have reported successfully using hotel or Airbnb bookings for visa applications.

They didn't ask me for a permanent address, in fact I added an address from an Airbnb and as proof sent the Airbnb visa document they provide in the site, no issues at all.

I have the same problem. They ask me for a "permanent address" when filling out the form. When typing in a hotel address, I am asked for if the hotel is my permanent address. If I click on "No" then I have to type in my permanent address ... How did you guys do that with just a hotel booking? Can you name a hotel address as your "permanent address" then..?

I used my Australian drivers license as proof of address.

Some people use hotel bookings when in a 3rd country. Or even entry stamps for example applying in Vietnam

Proof of address is typically just used for where you are in the country you are applying from, to prove you're actually in that country.

From booking.com, you can do a pay at hotel booking. And cancel it later. That's what I did.
