I think you can apply for Thai Visa from Thai embassy US (LA, DC, the others). There is one member in this group said they pulled a visa while in Turkey from Thai embassy in US. When I did applied for my visa, from US, they only asked which embassy I wanted to use, there was no verification that I was in the US at the time.

You can try but it will probably tell you that you need to apply in person.

nope not unless you lie to the system and say you're in your country when you're applying ๐Ÿ˜• the system will lock you out of you put in USA and then select Cambodia as the country you're in and it will say "slog on over and apply for the tourist visa at the thai consulate in Phnom Penh like everyone else does in Cambodia" OR something close to that ๐Ÿ˜›

if you go e visa website type in your citizenship and your location it will tell you to go to the embassy. Only takes two days and you havent got thai pass yet
