What should I do if I haven’t booked my flight back to Thailand while filling out the DTV form?

Hi,

I started the process of the online form for DTV for nomad. I reached to the page when i need to fill up date of arrival, flight number, address in Thailand. I'm doing it in Vietnam.

I'm planning to go back to Thailand only around April and i don't have any flight booked yet or a date i will return. What should i do ?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on how to complete the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) application form for Thailand without having a booked flight or a set return date. Several comments suggest that it is acceptable to input a proposed flight number or use tools that allow for temporary reservations. Users also advise on timing for application, noting the importance of applying no more than three months ahead of travel and offer tips like using flight numbers from Google or utilizing services that allow for cancellation-free bookings.

If it's not booked yet - Just put a flight number by looking on Google flights... ✔️

Look for a flight from where are planning to come from, and use that flight number. For department date count 170days from arrival

There is an old trick if immigration ever asks for a return flight, you book a cheap flight out of the country and pay the extra amount to be able to cancel the flight for. Full refund. Then you do.

You can only apply 3months before travel otherwise they may either cancel or hold your application until closer.

Search 🔍 the group at the top for posts from others, add “Hanoi” to get info about your specific embassy.

You could pay to hold a flight with bestonwardtravel, and book a cancellation free accommodation for 6 weeks, write in your cover letter you will find longer term accommodation once there. I wouldn’t list your entry date being longer than 3 months from now

I got mine in Vietnam by writing the intended return flight number, without actually buying the ticket
