Applying for DTV on my own.

I have a question re Flight and accommodation area. I guess someone already asked. What if you don't have a flight yet or long term accommodation? 

Is it ok to show accommodation for first week of something in the length of 7 days? What did you put in the accommodation area and for how long?

photo for attention only .

Summary so far

When applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand, it's important to provide accommodation details even if you haven't booked a flight or secured long-term housing. Comments suggest that short-term accommodation for the first week (like a 7-day booking) is acceptable. Many advise showing any accommodation you do have booked, such as a month on Airbnb, as this can be sufficient for immigration purposes. It's crucial to check the specific requirements of the Thai embassy where you will submit your application, as practices may vary.

Flights are necessary for the request Booked accommodations are enough( even if you later not use them) You have to show the accommodations in a merged pdf file if your space is not big enough tot type them all

Put what you have. Of that is all you booked. They might ask .. but sometimes they deny and just says the application didn’t meet the requirement.

I would book a month on air bnb.

They give you a printable confirmation for immigration. And your commuting to a place you aren’t sure is a good fit.

I am not an expert.

Just sharing my experience.

I have an ED visa. But want to get DTV next year.

Airbnb is a gray area in Thailand, so don’t go down that route.

I have lived there in air bnb. Have you?

I am very confused as to why and not reason.

You don’t need a deposit. Which are often not returned. You can pay monthly in your home currency without exchange or fluctuation.

They are responsive and usually include some cleaning and bedding exchange.

Where is the grey?

I changed each moth for a while to find my sweet spot.

Again. Never a problem.

Nobody can answer that without information about which Embassy is to be used.

Most questions can be answered by thoroughly reading the website of the Thai Embassy you will apply at, which is a lot more trustworthy source than facebook.

Little change. But they are pay attention to things that were previously ignored.
