What are the requirements for a 6-month multiple-entry tourist visa for Thailand while located in Vietnam?

When you applied did they accept your visa application? If not, what was their response?

I would think you need to provide both, as they want to see why you will need a METV. I was originally going to get that but opted for the Non O. Can’t remember if it was because the METV was too difficult or not, but it also seems like I read that if they don’t think you need a ME, they will grant a SE but will not refund the difference in the fee paid for the application, so I would include the travel documents for your departure if it allows you upload them. If you haven’t gotten the outbound yet, you may want to ponder the exemption, if you get the 60 day + 30 extension. I don’t like having to book in advance when I don’t know when I want to leave. You may be having fun and want to stay a bit longer before you leave. I don’t see how people book a year ahead for a 2 or 3 week trip with a specific itinerary of 5 different places. I’d rather just play it by ear.

P.S. I’m about to have to have to bounce, and, ironically, I’m headed TO HCMC. How did you like it there? I’ve read a lot of good things and I’m looking forward to the trip.

The OP is almost certainly confused and is referring to the DTV visa. Not an METV.

Either that or he’s a complete asshole and won’t listen to anyone. He’s too superior to listen to people on here advising him he can only get the METV in his home country.

And if he gets pissy with me for not answering his question he’ll be gone in the blink of an eye. We’ve got enough arrogant pricks to fill our quota.

What country passport do you hold? We need that information to advise properly.

You might as well apply for the DTV, cost is the same if you qualify.

Before I block you, I would like to point out that people have tried to offer their assistance and advice. The fact that a METV must be applied in your home country would be very valuable since you wrote that you are in Vietnam. Not once have you said thank you for their contribution; instead you have been snarky and rude. Your negative karma will be justly rewarded.

Why not just go visa excempt.

I'm not sure if you can apply for METV there... IF you can, you need to add multiple tickets to show why you need the multiple entry.

You’ll get 60 days visa exemption upon arrival’s if you’re entitled, ore else you can apply for a 60 days tourist visa with single entry only. (As you say “currently” located in HCMC).

Can you apply for a METV in Vietnam if you are not a Vietnamese passport holder or a resident? Check the Embassy website.

You can only apply for a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa from your home country
