Do you need flight and accommodation bookings for a DTV application in Thailand?

For a DTV visa application, you do not need to have booked a flight or accommodation in advance. Applicants often indicate an intended travel date and may write 'TBD' for the flight number. It's common to explain that arrangements will be made after visa approval to avoid financial loss in case of rejection. Alternatively, booking a fully refundable hotel can also be a practical solution.
