I’m ready to book my Airbnb. I contact the host and they can’t provide me with a tax ID number. Is it mandatory?

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for the STV (Special Tourist Visa) in Thailand, having a tax ID number from your Airbnb host is often required. This can be challenging if you are renting from a property owner who does not operate under a formal business structure, such as retirees who rent out their villas without a tax ID. Some users have successfully completed their STV applications with just a rental contract and the owner's passport, suggesting there may be flexibility depending on the situation.

Is this for the STV extension?

more then likely a villa owned by a retiree and therefore no tax id as not allowed to work or earn income but they still all rent their properties out on Airbnb like this....
many retirees do have a tax id. For instance if they pay tax on there pensionfund income in thailand instead of in their home country. And for more reasons
