TLDR : Answer Summary

The post discusses whether a flight needs to be booked before applying for a Thai visa online. Responses suggest that while you can visit a Thai consulate for a visa, booking a flight may still be required even for an online application. Some users recommend considering a 30-day visa exemption as an alternative.

Thanks for your help guys im starting to think it would be easier to go to thailand on a 30 day exempt and extend for a further 30 days there haha

Ady Bazeley that is OK.

IF your airline will allow you to fly without a return ticket out of Thailand...and IF you do not have a history of entries into Thailand.

Good Luck...and as you know the answer to your question...and options too..

Even the consulates ask for flight details.

Ady Bazeley your airline also may deny you boarding your flight without a return ticket or ticket out of Thailand.

And as the SETV can be extended in Thailand 30 days ...you should show a ticket returning or leaving Thailand within 89 days or sooner. Your arrival day counts as day #1.

Are you using the UK online visa application?

If so...go to a Thai Consulate in UK...much easier to get the Single Entry Tourist Visa. Walk in service.
