ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello everyone,

I am planning to apply for the DTV visa early next year. 

On the Thai e-visa website, it asked me which embassy I wish to apply to. 

Does it mean that I have to be in person near this embassy? 

Thank you.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The DTV visa application requires you to apply at an embassy that is located in the same country where you are currently residing. It is recommended to apply at your home country's embassy if you have not yet left your country.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

if you haven't leaving your country yet, I suggest you apply at your home country embassy.

In the same country as the Embassy you apply from. They will want copies of ALL pages of your passport to make sure you are in that country
