Hi all 😊

I'm from india.

My question is to get Thailand visa we have to show accommodation proof means hotel booking details right but if I stay at my friend's house how can I show booking of accommodation?
Answer summary
The user seeks advice on how to provide accommodation proof for a Thailand visa when staying at a friend's house instead of a hotel. Comments suggest obtaining an invitation letter from the friend detailing their address and relationship, which can be included with the visa application. Others humorously mention that the immigration process could be lenient if one is clever in their approach. However, it's emphasized that for travel under certain regulations (like Sandbox or quarantine), booking an official accommodation is necessary.

You have to book accommodation first for either Sandbox Phuket or Quarantine in Bangkok this will cover your accommodation question for the Thai Pass

not true, they want the accommodation you're staying at after your sandbox or ASQ also.

Re read your answer, actually you are correct lol

For the TP all you need is the quarantine hotels, then for immigration you need to supply next address.

You need to investigate much more from thai embassy website as to your requirements. But visa will not get you into Thailand with out having the Thai Pass

I'm assuming you mean accommodation after sandbox or quarantine when you arrive.

Ask them to write you an invitation letter detailing the address and relationship. You can then include this in your visa application.

what? We need 7-14 day's qurrantine? But I already vaccinated with 2 dose and still I need qurrantine in Thailand? And also 7-14 days qurrantine hotel charge given by myself or it given freely by Thailand government? But I want to travel whole Thailand but why they allow only travel in Phuket I really sad about these rules I never thought this much restrictions there πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜’

@Suwan ********
yes you're required to quarantine if you're vaccinated. They eliminated the option to take a test when you land and go wherever you want because of Omicron. If you're vaccinated and not coming from Africa you can do 7 day quarantine in Bangkok, you must pay for it. It starts around 28,000β‚Ώ and goes up from there depending on the quarantine hotel you choose.

@Suwan ********
if you're traveling in April everything will be different but then so just wait until March to find out the rules then

OP
@Brandon ***********
that's really sad 😒 if we vaccinated still we have restrictions. I understand because of omicron everywhere so much restrictions now again. Yes I want that option when I land test and go option.

But bro I'm visiting April month and may be this qurrantine rule will be change in month of April?

Can I stay qurrantine at hostel?

@Brandon ***********
it means if i stay in my friends house and I need to show invitation letter from them so don't need to show hotel booking right?
Brandon ************
Brandon ************
@Suwan ********
yes, if you mean the hotel after your quarantine or sandbox. You can't stay at your friend's house for sandbox or quarantine, only after.
Brandon ************
Brandon ************
@Suwan ********
there are 2 ways to enter Thailand. 7-14 day quarantine in a hotel room that you cannot leave, or Phuket sandbox for 7 days if you qualify where you must stay in an SHA+ hotel in Phuket but can go anywhere in Phuket after you get your negative PCR test after you land.
