Anyone know if this new DTV can be applied for at any Thai embassy outside of Thailand or within the same country I was born, raised and left 😄

TLDR : Answer Summary

I emailed the consulate in Hong Kong and they confirmed that I can apply there, as a Swedish citizen.

I just emailed them and asked, didn't mention that I was swedish before they said I could apply.

You can go to the e-visa site and pick your nationality and location and it will tell you if you can do it there 👌

That's a question for the Thai embassy that you want to use. This visa is too new for you to have reports from others.

Hong Kong allows applications there too. It's closer than Korea.

so, it’s possible to fly there and do it from either or? Good to know, are you in Thailand now? I’m on an ED visa at the moment and wondering if I should wait it out and then fly outside to sort the DTV. Hard to know what to do atm

- I emailed the Cambodian embassy earlier this week but have not heard back from them. One thing that they have changed though is that starting on the 15th (same day as the DTV came out), visa processing time increased to 6 working days. I assume they did this, as they knew they would get a influx of individuals in Thailand coming to Phnom Penh to apply.

- Yes, countries around Thailand do not participate in the e-Visa system. You have to physically go to the embassy and apply in person.
