What’s the deal with flight and accommodation requirements for the DTV? Do I actually need a flight booked? I’m planning to fly to Thailand after Tết in Vietnam, but if I don’t get the DTV, there’s no reason to book a flight until it’s confirmed. Also, I’ve noticed some places asking for proof of accommodations in Thailand. How am I supposed to provide that if I’m not there yet and can’t rent a place? It feels like a chicken-and-egg situation. Any advice?

I’ll be applying in Ho Chi Minh.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for the DTV visa in Ho Chi Minh, travelers often find themselves needing to show proof of a booked flight and accommodation in Thailand. This can feel challenging, especially for those who want to wait until their visa is confirmed before making travel arrangements. While some advice suggests that using a random flight number may suffice, the requirement for proof of accommodation can complicate things further, creating a situation where applying for the visa seems premature without concrete travel plans.

Just type in random flight number. Or the flight that you're suppose to take that's it. They won't ask
