ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello, 

The requirement to get the visa is eather provide booking information form my whole stay in TH or invitation letter from friend/relative. 

I will provide invitation latter from my GF but I'm wondering is it better to say in invitation latter that she is my friend or it's OK to state she is my GF? Do anybody know how they look at those types of things? I heard at some countries it's better not to mention having bf/gf there. 

thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The poster is seeking advice on whether to describe their girlfriend as a friend or as a girlfriend in an invitation letter required for obtaining a visa to Thailand. They mention that some countries may have different perspectives on stating one's relationship status, and they have heard that it might be better not to mention a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship.

Thanks for the info. They say I can bring invitation latter from friend/relative without much more info. I was just wondering is it better to state gf or friend on invitation letter.
