What are the requirements for proof of accommodation when applying for a 60-day tourist visa to Thailand from the UK?

Why dont you enter 30 day visa exempt than apply with local thai immigration for extension of 30 days no need to proof of accommodation your landlord or hotel or owner of the accommodation you stay must submit a tm30 document not you all your worries gone for you to enjoy but for you application for extension of additional 30 day stay you must present a tm30 from your accommodation provider couple hours out of your day and done simple

You don’t say when you are planning on going.

Just send what you have got and if they are not happy then they email you asking for another document. They don’t refuse your visa just because 1 or 2 documents aren’t right.

I just did a Non-O.

Submitted on 6th Oct. for flight on 1st November. They emailed me on 26th Oct. to submit 3 more documents, which I did and it was approved on 27th Oct.

Correct me if wrong this proof of booked accommodation, you only need proof of first night ??.

Waiting for my visa to arrive been waiting 5 weeks now only 2 weeks before I leave

I applied 24th September for 60 day visa,taken my money still waiting.No response it is stressful . I dont want to get to airport and not allowed to board with no visa

Yes. . I got my visa last week .( London )

The requests are becoming unreasonable!!

I'm from the UK. On my application I showed a jpeg of a 5000thb deposit receipt on a Serviced apartment for a five month duration of letting.

I provided 4 months of bank statements showing very ample funds ,all combined into one pdf.

A pdf of my electricity bill showing my address and passport etc.

Got approved in 15 days exactly

Jpeg no good must be PDF

Just book something with free cancellation on Agoda

not guaranteed that it will pass if there is no official hotel stamp at the bottom of the page... we may have taken a notebook during a previous trip!! Personally, we’ll say something not honest as if it’s filled out by you, we see carbon, etc...

there is also AI analysis of the documents and then reverification by a human (there are people in your country who have posted that they are being summoned with original documents)

They’ve been checking all along lately, there are even people being summoned to the embassy!!!! so that original documents can be shown...

otherwise in PDF it also works, you can convert jpeg to PDF for free

jpg takes up too much mo and there is a limit for the document to be uploaded

Can they not email you invoice?

Just book somewhere on booking .com , print it off then cancel the room you be fine they dont check

It has to be the confirmation you download from the booking agent, not just a photo or screenshot.

What I’m at a loss to understand is WHY do you need proof of accommodation booking for an application for a tourist visa. I’ve been going to Thailand (from Oz) for over 30 years and never once have had to supply details. It’s normally up to the place you are staying to take your details and fill out a TM30 and lodge it with immigration advising them where you are staying..besides if you are travelling around the country you may have no idea where you are going to be let alone where you are staying.

You will need to show that accommodation is booked and paid for, not reserved. Can you not pay on your creditit card and get them to email receipt of payment ?

No

Get AI to talk you through it, the correct format etc all accommodation docs in the same PDF and compressed if its too big. ( 300mb) they will ask if it's not correct. Check every step of the way.

You need booking confirmation, I can't really tell from your photo. If the Embassy accepts it as booking confirmation then you should be fine. I guess that doesn't really help. If it's not accepted then they will email you asking for proof of accommodation

Not sure using a hotel as address best to put a family's address in the UK to apply to or a visa.

I received one form like that for my booking and sent it ON all OK 👍

I don't think so

Heather I booked a hotel for one week and payment is due 3 days before I arrive through booking.com I can cancel if I want to, not that I am cancelling it. I also booked a hotel for the remainder of the 60 days but again it's cancelled. I sent both hotel receipts and it was accepted.

If Nice and Easy bungalows emailed that receipt to you then it should be fine.

It says paid by cash.

Did someone in Thailand pay it for you?

It says cash, so you havent paid for it yet? Better get a receipt of a paid one, many embassies require it paid, you can search the group for your embassy

No idea, but I suspect not. Either make a cancellable booking on booking.com or similar, or get a letter of invitation from the person with their Thai ID and a copy of their house book
