TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired whether a UK driving licence, which contains a photo and address, is acceptable for confirming location when applying for a visa at the Thai embassy in London. Responses indicated that it is okay to use the driving licence, with one commenter suggesting that combining it with a council tax bill might be a safer option. It's also noted that the upload section specifies acceptable document examples.

It tells you what documents examples can be used on the upload section.

if you have anything else like a bank statement showing your address, merge it into 1 PDF with your licence. For example Wise allows your to print a proof of account letter.

I used my Airbnb to prove my address and added a note saying I am digital nomad so don't have a set address always
