TLDR : Answer Summary

The consensus among community members is that an outbound flight booking is generally not required for the DTV visa application in Thailand. However, some embassies or consulates may request an outbound ticket, especially noted by a user from the UK. Overall, it's important to check specific requirements based on your nationality and the embassy where you are applying.
