Question about immigration requiring receipt for accommodation that includes hotel's taxpayer number [Tourist visa application] - - -

Hi there peeps!

When you apply for a tourist visa to come to Thailand, the 6th written requirement on the checklist is - '**Proof of payment for accommodation for the whole period of stay in Thailand

(the receipt must state the tax payer number of the relevant

hotel/accommodation)'....**

But from my experience when you book a hotel in Thailand through Agoda, Agoda does not usually give you a 'tax invoice' but rather a 'booking confirmation' instead [which does not include the hotels tax number].

If you have recently applied for a Tourist visa, did you only show a 'booking confirmation' or did you also have to produce an actual tax invoice?

Thank you! (🌸◡‿◡)

My Thailandpass got denied although I uploaded everything including the booking confirmation of the AQ Hotel by agoda. What is the reason?

Is there a specific document that needs to be uploaded to prove hotel booking for thai pass / phuket sandbox application? I booked directly with the hotel through their site.

Having trouble communicating directly with hotels on Test and Go packages - not to mention horrible delays in response on reservation inquiries, lack of complete information, won't answer questions, etc. And now, I'm down to the complete wire needing this done asap. Question: is it really unacceptable to do an Agoda booking and upload that? Has anyone had success on Thai Pass with a third party booking platform, or is it all done directly with the hotel?

For those of you that have successfully received your Thailand pass, what kind of proof did your hotel provide?

I am hearing that some SHA+ hotels provide a SHABA form with a SHABA reservation ID whereas some other SHA+ hotels just provide a confirmation letter with a normal reservation ID.

Is either one valid?

Also, did you have to provide any specific proof regarding the inclusion of a PCR test in your SHA+ package, or was the letter/form from the hotel sufficient?

I will submit my application tomorrow and would like to make sure that I have the correct paperwork.

Thanks for your help.

Greetings,

Has anyone used Agoda to book the full ASQ package?

No problem to be recognized by the authorities to get the COE?

Are Airbnb reservations accepted as proof of accommodation when applying for a 60 day Thailand Tourist Visa? That is to say, can they be submitted with the Visa application to show one's travel plans in Thailand?

I'm going to Vientiane for my Non O visa tomorrow, could someone please tell me if I've missed something off the booking website because there doesn't seem to be any confirmation or ref number to prove my booking. What's the procedure on arrival? Thanks in advance.
