TLDR : Answer Summary

US citizens cannot apply for the DTV E-visa online; however, they can submit applications via the Thai embassies in the US, with documents possibly sent electronically. Experiences shared indicate that online applications are accepted, but special rules apply for US citizens, particularly regarding document requirements like tax returns.

You have to apply in the country where you, then go the Embassy website of that country, read the requirements and you will find out it you have to apply online or by going to the Embassy.

There you will also find lots of need-to-know informations.

Yes! Go to the official Thai embassy website. You'll be asked for your embassy based on where you are from. Just like anywhere else except in the US they are asking for tax returns. I was approved in 17 days through DC.

If you apply online, the visa is a PDF document. That's it.

Participante anónimo Yes, in the US and many other countries only online applications are available. Still, they require you to be physically inside the country.

I Believe all the Thai embassies in America are using online system, your application will be forwarded to the consulate with jurisdiction over your location.
