ORIGINAL POSTER

Asking for a friend,  Australian Citizen living in Bali,  wants to obtain a METV to relocate to Thailand,  can the METV only be obtained in Australia? Looked on the Thai Embassy site  for Jakarta,  looks like they only issue METV to Indonesian Nations.

TLDR : Answer Summary

An Australian citizen residing in Bali must return to Australia to apply for a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) for Thailand, as it cannot be obtained at the Thai Embassy in Jakarta unless they are a permanent resident of Indonesia.
