ORIGINAL POSTER

Good evening everyone,

I'm going to apply for a RT visa next week. I didn't book my flight ticket ether hostel quarantine or even after quarantine. I wanted to be sure to get first my visa.. 

BUT I don't know if it will fine for the consulate where I'm going to apply. Do you have some advises? Should I say the truth to them, that I'm waiting to get my visa first or book everything without knowing if I'll get my visa... ? 

Thanks for any advises <3

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking advice on whether to book a flight and accommodation prior to applying for a RT visa to Thailand. A commenter suggests that while it is not necessary to have a confirmed flight booking for the visa application, a confirmed flight and paid ASQ accommodation are required when applying for the Certificate of Entry.

When applying for the visa put in the flight number and dates you’d like to use. Generally there is no need to actually have a confirmed booking to get the visa. However when you apply for the certificate of entry you have to have a confirmed flight and ASQ accommodation paid for as that is printed on your certificate.
