You wrote "Not sure if owner or agents would supply tax number on a reciept"... that lead me to believe you hadn't asked.

Anyway, as Brandon mentioned in another comment, there are nowhere to upload this information in the e-visa system... so if you really want to apply in KL - do so - while you figure out a solution what to do IF they request additional information from you regarding accomodation. If you are lucky the wording in such a request might be different... you won't know unless you try.

I'll add the requirements as they are listed in NZ as an example, see number 8. They ask for "proof of accomodation in Thailand, e.g. hotel bookings..."

@Sab ****

I did understand the specific requirement. I mearly suggested that he could TRY, pray and hope! Hotel bookings for the entire period doesn't seem to be enough either (even though other embassies accept that) - they ask for "proof of payment". So the best is, of course, if he can get a reciept from the owner of the accomodation that he actually pays for... it doesn't seem like he's even asked!

...or he could just give up his Tourist Visa application in KL!

@Billy ********

proof of payment for accomodation is definitely not a requirement for Tourist Visas on all Thai consulates/embassies. A lot of tourists like to travel around, "go with the flow" and apply for SETV without a set itinerary...

The owner from who you have the yearly lease SHOULD be able to provide you with a reciept with the requested info if you make a payment for 2 month (the 60 day visa period).

If not, then ask if you can end the lease (since they can't give you a reciept for your payment!), then get a new accomodation...

...or take a chance, pay for 2 nights in a hotel plus add a note stating you will be travelling around without a set itinerary and hope/pray they will accept this, since it's a pretty normal tourist behavior. (My guess it is even more normal for a tourist visa application, than having a yearly lease staying in 1 place for all 60 days.)

@Stéfan *******

there are no restrictions for land border crossings anymore.

@Jon ******

the Thai Embassy in your home country and a local immigration office in Thailand is NOT related at all (in fact they're even under different government ministries) meaning a Thai Embassy is not the right source!

The OP got solid advice here in an fb-group from strangers... to check the requirements at the immigration office where he plan to do his extension. No Thai Embassy abroad knows the exact requirements for each local immigration office.

@Jasmine ********

no METV is short for Multiple Entry Tourist Visa. It is a visa that you apply and pay for before you travel to Thailand.

The stamp you refer to is for Visa Exemption = no visa at all! (...and since it is no visa, you don't have to wait for it to expire).

@Bonnie ******

you are a bit wrong there... with a multientry touristvisa you can come and go as you please during a 6 month period. Yes there is a fee to obtain the visa, but there are no reentry fees - it's multientry!

Also, if you are a genuine tourist, staying a week or so in various countries, returning to Thailand several times - immigration are unlikely to "ding you". They are cracking down on people doing border bounces, entering time and time again on visa exemptions = people that are trying to live/stay longterm in Thailand without having a visa at all!

@Aaron ******

that was for walk-in applications... they are moving to e-visa, so tomorrow (Dec 27) is the last day of in-person submission. Once on e-visa, the fee is to be paid when applying.

Anonym deltagare just out of curiousity - you were told it could take up to 10 working days and also read that many got their visa within 3-6 days... so what other answers are you looking for by this question? 🤔

@Johanne *********

well you kind of write it yourself: "proof of relationship to the DTV visa holder: e.g. a copy of marrige cerificate..."

I have not read any official document about this that is specific for DTV, other than the proof you just mention. Just know what's been accepted as a dependant on other visa types...

For instance, in many countries cohabitation is defined by law, but in Thailand your legal marital status is concidered as single even if you lived with your partner for 20 years etc.
