Do I need a recent police clearance from Thai police for my NON B visa application?
Hi, everyone. I am South African. I need to do my final NON B run 13th of December. I have police clearance from home. But I've been getting suggestions that I might have to get one from Thai police. a recent one. Is that true? Thanx..
Answer summary
A South African expat is inquiring about the need for a recent police clearance from Thai authorities when applying for a NON B visa. Responses indicate that a police clearance from the home country is sufficient, and a Thai police clearance is not needed unless the individual has been working in Thailand for six months or more. The original clearance must be less than six months old.
