How can I provide proof of hotel booking for my Thai visa application without paying for a hotel?

Hello y'all!

I submitted my e visa application, 60 day tourist, at the Thai consulate Frankfurt!

Just got an email stating they need proof of hotel booking for my stay in Thailand! For the last 20 years I rent a condo privately in the same building. Hence, when I arrive from the airport by taxi I just go to reception, pay one month rent and the deposit and get my key!

There is no booking or anything else before hand.

How do I supply the consulate with a hotel booking confirmation without paying for a hotel?

Cheers for any help!!!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is facing a challenge in providing proof of hotel accommodation for their 60-day tourist e-visa application at the Thai consulate in Frankfurt, as they typically rent a private condo without prior bookings. Community suggestions include making a temporary reservation through platforms like Booking.com or Agoda, which can be canceled later.

Yes use booking.com or Agoda for a dummy booking then cancel in country.
Michael ********
If they still insist on a hotel booking after the test and go hotel, just find a hotel on booking.com or agoda that you can cancel.

Get your visa then cancel the booking.

Absolutely stupid from the embassy staff they have forgotten the defenition of tourist

just to show them a booking.

The test and go package I'll book when I have the visa and a flight!

@Оливер ********
the Test N Go hotels may be problematic. As the prepaid package is required to get the TPass...but lets see.
