If your passport nation qualifies for the free visa exempt entry stamp then you can enter Thailand at no cost, you'll be stamped in for 60 days.

I believe he is saying he applied via a Europe-based consulate because he is a citizen of a European country, but he is not physically there when he applied.

applying inside EU requires a resident adress as proof. I understood it that he has no residence right now.John *******

if he is from a European country and he doesn’t have “residence” implies he is not currently living in Europe. Therefore, he should be applying via the consulate where he isAnonymous *************
OPI was there, but only temporary (Hotel booking). Thing is that EU based consulates request proof of residency in the country you apply otherwise they reject every visa

OPAs i already needed to book my flight for the application and i don't want waste also this money additional to the visa application. So will enter on arrival visa exemption and maybe go out later to apply in e.g Vietnam

Anonymous participant so why don’t you apply from a different country? Close to Asia?

OPThis was a problem, as they rejected my visa because of that reason, that i didn't had residency. I'm Digital Nomad without residency. Afterwards i asked a Visa agent for help and they told me that EU based consulates will reject every Visa request if you don't have residency in the country.

Anonymous participant I guess this would not be a problem since US persons have no proof of residency other than bills or pay statements.

@John ******
so was correctly rejected if so. Certainly makes more sense

You don't say what country you're from. Thailand doesn't recognise "EU Citizen"
