Do I need to submit photocopies of every page of my passport when applying for a Thailand visa, and can I stay at multiple hotels during the application process?

When submitting the application should there be photo copies of every passport page? Or just the biodata page and arrival stamp page if applying from a country other than home country? Can you stay at multiple hotels while waiting for application to process or just stick to one?

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a visa in Thailand, you should provide copies of all passport pages, including the biodata page and the arrival stamp page if applying from a country other than your home country. It is advisable to combine all passport pages into a single PDF when submitting online. Regarding accommodation, you are allowed to stay at multiple hotels while your visa application is being processed.

Im applying for the remote worker visa and doing mine in Laos - i only had to upload the biodata page (make sure its good quality).

I initially sent copy of my hotel bill as proof of location but they asked me to upload the passport page which had my Laos arrival stamp.

Yes you can stay at multiple hotels within same country

What's your passport nation?

Where are you going to submit the application for the DTV visa?

Anonymous participant are you applying for the DTV visa as a Workcation or Soft Power activity?

Read carefully the posts from those who have applied with the HCMC Thai Embassy.

And carefully read the requirements for the DTV visa as posted on the Thai Embassy website.

Use the search 🔍 tool top of the forum page

ENTER DTV Ho Chi Minh City

CLICK on it and all posts about getting it there will pop up to read.

Must be all your passport pages

Only when they specifically ask for all pages.

When you submit the application, only the biodat page is sufficient.

They ask for all pages sometimes to check if you still are in the country.

It doesn't hurt to combine all your passport pages into a single PDF, you can combine those pages into one of the other documents that you need to upload, because they may ask for it anyway and yes you don't have to stay in one hotel.
