ORIGINAL POSTER

Are there any Aussies on here that have dealt with the Thai embassy in Sydney. If you arrive in the morning with all the required documentation will they process it that day. After a non o visa. Thanks all.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The Thai embassy in Sydney now only processes visa applications through the e-visa system, meaning that all visa matters must be handled online. Walk-in processing is no longer available, and applications cannot be processed in person on the same day.

There's actually no Thai embassy is Sydney. The Embassy is in Canberra. Sydney has a Consulate which is one of the easiest in the world to deal with

What are you talking about? The requirements are on the website. If you meet the requirements and submit the required materials, you get the visa. There is no lottery, there is no gambling at all.

I am not talking only about the requeriments. But about their visa policy. Even if you are married, or working , they can change from night to morning the conditions of your stay, and it happened already to me 3 times. In 12 years that i am living in here.

you're still not making any sense. You wouldn't be applying for a visa from a Thai embassy 3 times if you're living in Thailand for 12 years. We're talking about EMBASSIES not about immigration.

Embassies follow what immigration say. And immigration follows what the government approves. Embassies are just a representative institution overseas.

You're completely wrong. Embassies are under the MFA which is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT government agency from immigration, which is under the department of the interior. The 2 agencies do not communicate and have no idea the policies of the other. If an embassy EVER tells you anything about immigration, do no listen to them because they will tell you wrong. And if an immigration officer ever tells you anything about an embassy, do not listen to them, because they will be wrong. The two basically have nothing to do with each other.

No, you cannot do this. Both the Thai embassy and consulate in Australia switched to e-visa a few months ago. This means ALL visa matters are now handled through the e-visa website and foreigners are no longer allowed on the property. The embassy now only serves Thai citizens in person. You must submit your visa application online ONLY.
