NON-O visa, Thai consulate Penang, application process
Hello guys,
my case has been discussed already. For now, I would like to know whether I need to make an appointment at the Thai consulate in Penang prior to the application process.
I believe it was necessary to do so but now I canβt find the appointment schedule on the website anymore. Also, if anybody knows, do I need 2 or 3 sets of copies of all documents? I sent an email to the consulate but no reply yet....
Thanks, Frank

TLDR : Answer Summary
The Thai consulate in Penang does not require an appointment for applying for a NON-O visa. It operates on a walk-in basis, but it's advisable to arrive early to secure your spot. Regarding document copies, there was no specific mention in the comments, so it's best to prepare 2 or 3 sets to be safe.
