Does anyone know how recent the police checks need to be? I had one done in January this year and was thinking of using that if possible
Answer summary
The police checks for visa processing in Thailand need to be recent, specifically within the last six months. Several comments affirm that a police check conducted within this timeframe, as well as a residency certificate, is required.
