Hello        ↪ obtaining ED and Non O visa question ↩

My husband and son will soon be traveling to the Thai Embassy in Malaysia, KUL.

My son will apply for his ED visa [linked to international school]. 

My husband will apply for Non O visa with the plan to go onto a guardian visa once my son gets his 1 year ED visa stamp in his passport.

I have been told by school visa department that husband and son can apply for their visas at the same time - as in in the same appointment at the embassy.

Is this true and if so, can anyone tell me a little more about the process.

One thing we have concerns about is the e visa application which I think is required when applying for both of these visas.

I have heard some far from functional reports from the e visa online application.

Thanks for any advice!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The question pertains to a family's visa applications at the Thai Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, where the son is applying for an ED visa linked to an international school and the husband is applying for a Non O visa. The inquirer seeks clarification on whether both can apply simultaneously at one appointment, as suggested by the school visa department, and expresses concern about the required e visa application process, which has received negative feedback.

Visit their website. Print out the checklist of items you’ll need for applying for each visa type. Tick off each box when you have it. You won’t get in the door without it.

KL doesn’t use the evisa system. You apply in person. You must have an appointment for applying and collecting your passport.

Kuala Lumpur may have an online system but it's not the evisa system.
