Strictly for U.S. passport holders-Did anyone receive a regular tourist visa (60 days) through New York Embassy AND DC Embassy recently? I thought it was nearly impossible in 2020 heck even 2021.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The conversation discusses the experiences of U.S. passport holders attempting to obtain a regular tourist visa (60 days) from the Thai embassies in New York and Washington D.C. It confirms that many individuals have successfully received their tourist visas from these embassies recently, despite previous difficulties in 2020 and 2021. There is also a question regarding the current requirement for 500,000 baht in the bank, which seems to have been relaxed according to some sources. Additionally, there are accounts of individuals applying online and sending their documents to the consulates.

I applied online and later that day they told me to mail them all the documents, pictures, passport, and the fee.....so I think this means I got it, just mailed everything today

Applied off the DC site and in the reply they said to mail to the NY consulate (closer to my location)
