TLDR : Answer Summary

When applying for a retirement visa in Thailand, you do not need to show your flight details or health insurance. However, these documents are necessary when applying for the Certificate of Entry (COE). If the application requests flight or accommodation details, you can provide proposed options instead of confirmed bookings.

Here in Australia a Health insurance certificate and policy needs to be obtained prior to applying for the visa. Flight and quarantine details submitted at time of COE application.

If on application they ask you for flight details or accommodation then just supply a proposed flight and hotel. They aren’t asking for confirmed bookings.
