What are the drawing map requirements for a Thailand visa application?
Does anyone know what the drawing map requirements are for a visa? Do you have any example for that?
Answer summary
The drawing map requirements for Thai visa applications can vary significantly between different immigration offices. Generally, these maps are not needed for the online E-Visa system but may be required during the extension of a stay permit. Some immigration offices accept a printout from Google Maps, while others may request a hand-drawn map showing your residence and landmarks. Commonly, these maps are used to verify your address and the route from major roads to your home. Some users have successfully submitted Google Maps printouts or received assistance from immigration staff in creating acceptable maps.

nothing to do with a visa. it's for the TM7. They may accept a primitive one. I drew the main road and 2 3 side roads and the direction to the nearest cities. Primitive but accepted.

Google map indicating residence to immi office ok for OA Thai wife renewal (not my wife - the 'visa')

It's so immigration agent can personally verify your address with a visit. I had agent come and take photo with me and home.

the map drawing requirement is NOT for the visa application through the online E-Visa system of the Thai embassy. It is generally asked for by the Immigration, when you apply to the extension of the stay permit. Some Immigrations want a hand drawn map, others accept a google map printout

Tom *******
My IO only wanted to see from Google maps and Ariel view of house from screen shot
Marianne ********
My office wanted a drawn map from the main road closest to us and some "landmarks".
Roads had to be drawn with two lines and not just one line.

@Marianne *******
mine took pity on me with my pathetic hand drawn maps and one of the helpers drew one for me with little traffic lights and everything covering the 30km between immigration office and home. Now I just photocopy that

@John *********
so if you 'play dumb' with Immigration Officers, you can get them to do the hard work for you 🤔 🤣Marianne ********
@John *********
i had drawn mine with a pencil and the officer was unable to copy it without losing too much quality. So the man found a pen and ruler and redid it for me himself, drawing over my drawing 😅I would keep that, but I have every intention of moving soon.

It is to show how to get to where you live exactly from the closest major road
Gary ******************
If its the ones showing where you live and routes to and from immigration then i used a print out from Google maps that's all I used no hand drawing or anything like that just a couple of maps printed off Google maps..
John **********
It varies by immigration office. Some allow a Google maps print out, some want hand drawn maps around where you live with a couple of landmarks highlighted and some want hand drawn maps between the immigration office and your home.

@John *********
If they wanted me to submit a hand-drawn map, I'd just trace the Google maps printout.
