Proof of accommodation for immigration purposes

Hello,

I will arrive in Bangkok on the morning of January 7. I only have proof of accommodation for the first 7 days, although I will be staying for one month. Do I need to provide accommodation proof for the entire duration of my stay?
Answer summary
A user inquires about whether proof of accommodation is necessary for their entire one-month stay in Thailand, as they only have it for the first 7 days. Community responses suggest that proof of accommodation is generally only required for entry, and having it for the first week is typically sufficient. It is mentioned that in practice, many travelers have successfully entered Thailand without extensive accommodation proof.

Get a hotel for a few days just to cover yourself

What a rubbish post.

Cover yourself for what? A tourist would have no interactions with immigration.

Just ignore it and enjoy Thai.

You need nothing. Any accommodation will do, even for single day 1 day, any address.

Do nothing.

Unless you will need further services from Thai Immigration office, nobody gives a flying fcuk about your accommodation. Not even the fitst day, say any hotel or you can even make it up, nothing will ever be checked.

25 years and 110 times in nThai, I never even knew that sh1t existed.

Forget it, for such a short stay.

Accomodation is needed only for entry. Even if you do not know the exact address, just say Sherthon Grande Sukhumwit. Nobody would ever check that.

Unless you have a huge history of previous entries to Thailand and they are looking for a way to refuse entry then it’s almost guaranteed that they will not ask you for accommodation details.

Even if they were to 7 days would suffice.
