Guys I am an Afghan passport holder

I decided to apply for Thailand Evisa I chooses Afghanistan as I am currently here right now.

The system automatically choose Thailand embassy in Islamabad Pakistan. I am unable to get Pakistan visa and in the website it says there is no need to submit supporting documents in person in the embassy.

I find an agent in Pakistan that will pay my invoice in the embassy. Will I face any problem if my visa approved and I decided to travel.

In addition I am unable to book a round trip ticket what if my visa refuse.

Please help me
Answer summary
The user, an Afghan passport holder, is seeking advice on applying for a Thailand Evisa while currently in Afghanistan. The application process routes through the Thai embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan, where in-person payment is typically required. The user is concerned about traveling without a round trip ticket in case of visa refusal and the overall difficulties Afghan nationals face when applying for Thai visas. Comments from the community confirm that the e-visa process is mainly online, but emphasize the need for in-person payment or using an agent, and express skepticism about the likelihood of approval for Afghan applicants.

Unfortunately, you need to go to the Thai Embassy in Islamabad to make Cash Payment in–person or have an Agent to make Cash Payment on your behalf for your Thai E–Visa Fee

Good luck luck with this. The odds are not in your favor. Are you currently in Afghanistan? Do you require an exit visa or permission to travel from your government?

It is just that the Royal Thailand Embassy in Islamabad is probably the Thailand representative mission responsible for Afghanistan; and when in Afghnistan, the Embassy of Pakistan is the in-country representative for Thai citizens (if they need on-site/incountry assistance. When I worked there intermittently (2004-2010), before the Australians had a Diplomatic mission there (no longer now also), we were told the Canadian Embassy was our in-country representative to contact for assistance.

It's just where your Visa is going to be processed because there is no Thai consulate or Embassy in Afghanistan.

Almost all of Africa gets processed through South Africa.

You don't have to visit.

Just apply submit your documents and pay the money.

Don’t waste your money bro very difficult for Afghan national I’m here in Bangkok… If you are in a Gulf country or any country where you have a work permit, you can still apply for an e-visa to Thailand at the embassy in that country. Then there are chances of your visa being granted, and for that, you need to have money in your account and all the necessary documents.
