ORIGINAL POSTER
For those who have been following our family’s situation, I am happy to report that we just got back from Penang with dependent visas for our daughters in hand!

Here are some notes based on our experience. I can’t ensure that everyone will have the same experience, but the consulate seemed very understanding of our situation and were very accommodating to us while we were there.

The main things the consulate wanted to see were our:

- Filled-out visa applications w/ photos

- Passports

- Work permits

- Flight itineraries back to Thailand

- Bank statement

- Official letter from foundation

- Foundation registration papers

- Director’s legal paperwork

For our daughters’ applications, they specifically requested copies of my:

- e-visa confirmation

- Passport pages

- Work permit pages

***They wanted them for each child’s application.

At the Penang Consulate, they only take Malaysian Ringgit. It’s 320 ringgit per Non-O single entry visa, paid in cash upon application submission.

Visa applications can be made 9am-11am. Pickup is usually next day from 2pm-4pm. We got there around 8:30 and there was a long line, but they allowed us to go ahead because we had small children. I applied for everything myself, while my wife and daughters were told to wait outside the building.

I hope this helps!
