Hey helpful people,

Has anyone successfully done a Thai police clearance from abroad (I'm in Australia).

I lived in Thailand a couple years back and now I need a clearance for an Australian visa application.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much

There was a post about this before. Try searching for it. The parts I saw was that you have to go in person. However I would not be surprised if some agent / lawfirm could help.
