Has anyone had any luck applying for  90 day SETV in Hong Kong? I am not a Hong Kong resident. I emailed the consulate directly but they said I need to be a resident but I do recall seeing something on here that said something different. TIA

Answer summary

The question revolves around the experience of applying for a 90-day Single Entry Tourist Visa (SETV) for Thailand from Hong Kong by a non-resident. According to comments, some individuals, including one user who applied successfully without issues, state that it is possible to obtain the SETV as a non-resident. They suggest bringing the entry slip from Hong Kong and making a copy, while also noting that while some may not face requests for additional documents, others might be asked for proof of accommodation, depending on nationality. Helpful links to Thai consulate resources and visa requirements are also shared.

Sten Van Aardt Got my SETV from Hong Kong in January. No Issues as non-resident. Just bring your entry slip and make a copy of that at the building next to the consulate. They didn't ask me financial proof, accommodation or onward tickets but they might ask you based on your nationality. Some Pakistani dudes in front of me got an argument after they were asked for proof of accommodation

I'm from the Netherlands. Although they won't ask it's always smart to be prepared for all requests. Onward ticket can be easily rented online and with Agoda or Booking.com you can easily book and cancel accommodation at no cost. Financial proof is as easy as a bank statement.

So moral of the story is to have all documents ready but wont neccesarily need them. What is your country of origin, I just want to check if there is differences.
