ORIGINAL POSTER
I am currently applying for my e-visa from Vietnam, where I am visiting. I have two questions. First, should I put my current address in Vietnam first, or my permanent residence address in my home country? Second, I am arriving in Thailand by train from Vientiane to Udon Thani. Which immigration checkpoint should I select: Fraternity Bridge 1, 2, 3, or 4?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires about whether to list their current address in Vietnam or their permanent address in their home country on their e-visa application for Thailand. Additionally, they seek clarification on which immigration checkpoint to select when arriving by train from Vientiane to Udon Thani.

You are required to provide documentation confirming that your current location is Vietnam when submitting an application with a foreign passport. Acceptable documentation may include an entry stamp, a boarding pass, or written confirmation of your accommodation. The First Friendship Bridge serves as the border crossing between Vientiane and Udon Thani; however, you must document or specify the mode of transportation you intend to use for entry, but there’s no direct train for this route. Personally I would have chosen a direct bus all the way.
