Can I apply for a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa for Thailand while in another country?

I am a U.S. citizen and applied for a tourist visa at the Thai embassy in Seoul, South Korea. They did it. Took me 2 days to submit all the correct documents and it took them 3 additional weeks to complete their paperwork.

How much is an METV please if anybody knows?

What's a false flight ticket and where did u do these. 🤣regular flier and these flights are pissing me off?

And that bis the same as it is in Canada.

“All applicants must be residing within the UK/Ireland/UK territories when apply for the Visa. The Royal Thai Embassy has the right to cancel the visa applications should you fail to provide the evidence of your presence within the UK/Ireland/UK territories while applying for the visa.”

You can do this with the Thai Embassy US, I don't know about UK. I know many people in this group take objection to it, but their opinions do not influence immigration's decisions. For the US, (and likely all places), the eVisa site asks "Where are you?" and "Where are you from?". If you answer the two questions correctly, it allows you got complete the application. During the application process it asks the same two questions a bit differently. This allows you to complete the application without lying on the application, pretty much. The first two questions are pre-application questions that do not show up on the application.

In the past, when I have done this, they always ask for follow-up paperwork (flights or hotel accommodations, etc). When I provide the paperwork I include a note explaining that I am touring around and will not be going back home so I can't provide flight evidence from US to Thailand, but I do provide flight into Thailand (because I am traveling anyway).

Bali has no Thai Embassy and I frequently travel to Bali. Which explains why I use the US Thai embassy instead of the Indonesian Thai embassy.

Good luck to you.

Are you really asking on a public forum if you can do something illegal?

You are aware that immigration often monitors these discussion pages.

You cannot be the full penny or maybe a little simple.

U should not to of advertised what u planned to do.

Now you could find that you are flagged when u enter Thailand and then you will see the word ban start to be discussed by immigration if they pull u aside upon re-entry.

Very silly indeed.

Don't immigration often ask to see the boarding pass . ... would/could that be flagged up on their system when you enter?

You can only apply for the metv in your home country

You're asking, on Facebook, if you can break Thai law?

Also from UK, let me know how this goes.

As to my knowledge it’s either get online METV whilst in UK or if you’re in a neighbouring country you’d have to get a visa via the embassy.

Which makes no sense, it should all be online it’s 2024.

Also what’s to say you can’t get granted a Thai visa but decide to visit neighbouring countries first then heading off to Thailand? Surely they wouldn’t expect someone to fly back to uk to catch a U.K. to Thailand flight just because that’s what the visa says?

Give it a go. Let us know how you get on.

You can try, most you've got to lose is the application fee.

Report back and let us know if you pull it off.

Once you have it, matters not where you enter from.

Officially, you must apply through the Thai embassy that serves the country where you physically are located.

Once you have the visa, you are not required to stick to the items you submitted to obtain it.
