ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, I have applied tourist visa online n got the email to provide additional document to proceed further : 

1, address for my stay 60 days in thai — originally I showed the first hotel that I stayed few days as I want to find hotels after landed;  should I really need to book 60 days hotel to attach such documents 

2, invitation letter from thai people (how to get this or what the content)

If I didn’t attach such additional document, will my record of failed tourist visa to be showed n affect my entry when landed in thai ?  I plan to apply Retire visa in thai after landed in fact.  Thanks for add advice!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user seeks advice on additional documentation needed for a Thai tourist visa, specifically whether they need to book a hotel for their 60-day stay and how to obtain an invitation letter from someone in Thailand. They also inquire about the implications of not providing the requested documents on their visa application record and their future plans to apply for a retirement visa after arriving in Thailand.

Why are you applying for a tourist visa when over 92 countries get a free 60-day visit exempt entry? What country is your passport and where are you applying through?

This is quite strict, but still not entirely unusual. May I ask where you are applying from?

If you want a retirement visa why did you apply for a tourist visa? Easier to get a retirement visa when not in Thailand.

Book a hotel with free cancellation through Agoda. Once you get the visa, cancel the booking.
