TLDR : Answer Summary

An international student currently in the UK is facing issues with the Thai e-visa portal not accepting their address when trying to apply for a tourist visa. Comments suggest that proving a specific address is generally unnecessary for a regular tourist visa, but may be required for a multiple entry tourist visa (METV). They recommend using a passport stamp to indicate presence in the UK.

You don’t need to prove a specific address to apply, unless you apply for a METV (multiple entries tourist visa) and you need to prove residency. Only current location as your passport showing a stamp into UK or something proving your presence in UK while applying.
