Answer summary
When applying for a 60-day visa for an 80-day stay in Thailand while staying at a friend's apartment, there are several ways to provide proof of accommodation. You can ask your friend for an invitation letter, ideally accompanied by their Thai ID. Alternatively, booking a hotel room for a few days (which is refundable) and then cancelling after obtaining the confirmation can also serve as proof. Some users have successfully been approved for their visas by mentioning the name and address of the hotel they planned to stay at and later not providing evidence for the rest of their stay. It's also noted that the owner of the property does not need to be in Thailand at the same time as you for the invitation letter to be valid.

I had a hotel booked for the first 10 days, i added all the information about the friend for the rest of my stay, they were confused about the invitation letter and tge information requested. My visa was approved

If you don’t want to bother about an invitation letter just book a 4-5 day hotel on booking.com that is fully refundable or pay on arrival. Get the confirmation and then cancel it and use the confirmation as proof

There a different prices when you book at booking.com. You payed the cheapest price and then there is no refund available.

David Wilson I’ve done this literally 50 times for visa’s and always cancelled. Book a room that you “pay at property”
Bob ******
David Wilson Completely different circumstances - Booking will provide a date up to when can cancel for free. His advice is legit.

OPDavid Wilson Agoda has free cancellation on many hotels before you pay anything

The invitation letter should be photographed with their Thai ID

Invitation letter from the owner if they are Thai, or if a foreigner possibly a letter along with a copy of their lease
