Hey guys 

When applying for DTV outside of Thailand, in one of other asian countries around 

Do we need to show them a plane ticket for Thailand ? 

Even if we’re not sure that our visa will get approved and when ? 

And do we need to show them also a proof of hotel or rental contract for a house in Thailand ? 

It’s not making a lot of sense for me 

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

When applying for a DTV visa outside of Thailand, you do not need to show a plane ticket or proof of accommodation, as these are not required by the application process. You can simply enter the travel plans you intend to follow.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.

no and no. Just input the travel details you intend to follow.

If you haven't signed up for the e-visa application portal, then do so and you'll see that they don't require proof of your travel plans.

Anonymous participant Only heard about a couple of interviews. As I said it's unlikely you will be asked. If you lived in Thailand, married to a Thai, are types of reasons for an interview.
