STV Visa 

Anyone knows if we need to personally go down to the Thai embassy to get the visa done to verified our passport? OR everything is online?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The inquiry is about the necessity of visiting the Thai embassy in person to process the STV visa, with a comment suggesting that mailing the passport may be an alternative.
