I’ve done some looking online and looking for advice.

Can Tanzanian people apply for an evisa online or does it have to be in person at Thai embassy at Nairobi? Cheers

TLDR : Answer Summary
Tanzanian citizens can apply for a Thai e-visa online. Currently, all Thai embassies, including the one in Nairobi, have transitioned to an online application process, eliminating the need for in-person applications.

There's no such thing as in person applications anymore. Every Thai embassy is now using the e-visa system.

Go online to the Thailand evisa system and enter your location and passport country, and it will tell you which embassy your application will be processed by.

 as of January 1st 2025 the last embassies switched to online. But there are still a couple that requires payment in person at the embassy. I only know of Laos and Myanmar where that's the case though.

 thanks for your help mate..from your understanding or opinion. Are Tanzanian or Africans in general hard to get visa approvals? As you know they haven’t made a positive impact to the country and only looked down upon from what some do.
