Does it matter if I enter the country from Hanoi but I’ll go to Ho Chi Minh and apply from there ? Can I just show them Country Entry Stamp in Hanoi and Hanoi to HoChiMing flight tickets ?
Answer summary
Entering Thailand from one city and applying for a visa in another, such as entering from Hanoi and applying in Ho Chi Minh City, is generally acceptable. Authorities mainly require proof of your entry, such as the entry stamp, along with flight tickets.
