Notice: DummyHotelTicket provides travel documentation and reservation vouchers for itinerary planning and visa application reference. It is not an advance prepaid room booking. Check the official consulate checklist for your specific jurisdiction before submission.
Heading to Bangkok, Phuket or Chiang Mai? Thailand’s entry rules for Indian passport holders have changed more than once in recent years, moving between visa exemption and visa on arrival. Do not rely on a blog or video from last year, including this one. Check the current rule on the Royal Thai Embassy in India website before you book. What stays constant is that you should be ready to show where you are staying.
What travellers are commonly asked to carry
- A passport with enough validity for your trip
- A confirmed return or onward ticket
- Proof of accommodation for your stay
- A clear travel itinerary
- The Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC), completed on the official TDAC site before arrival
- Proof of funds if the entry route you use requires it
Why accommodation proof matters on arrival
Immigration officers can ask for your hotel details at the airport, so keep a PDF on your phone and a printed copy. The document should show your name, the hotel name and address, and your dates. If you are visiting more than one city, show where you will stay first and keep the rest of your itinerary consistent.
Common mistakes for Thailand trips
- Using outdated entry rules. Always check the current embassy advisory.
- Hotel dates that do not match your flights. Arrival and departure dates should agree with your tickets.
- Forgetting the TDAC. It is a separate step from any visa or hotel document.
- Calling a reservation a paid stay. Describe your document honestly if asked.
How DummyHotelTicket helps
Choose a hotel in Bangkok or another Thai city, enter your dates and guest names, and download a reservation PDF in a few minutes. Browse Bangkok hotels or open the hotel booking page. A dummy hotel booking is a reservation document, not a confirmed stay. Read is it legal? and see what the PDF contains before you decide. You may also want a flight itinerary.
Frequently asked questions

It depends on the rule in force at the time of travel. Check the Thai embassy advisory before you book.
Will officers ask for hotel proof on arrival?
They can. Keep your accommodation details ready.
Is a dummy hotel booking enough for entry?
It is a reservation document, not a confirmed stay. If you are asked for a confirmed booking, use a refundable real booking.
