TLDR : Answer Summary

The requirement for a return ticket and hotel booking is not a Thai immigration rule for non-immigrant visas; however, it may depend on the airline's policies.

It's not a Thai immigration requirement. But we can't tell you what your airline will do. It should not be required though, as a non-immigration visa will give you a path to living in Thailand.
