Did you do the E-visa or you went into the embassy? Is the e-visa through KL easier?

ORIGINAL POSTER@Sab ****
Sab Sab they asked additional documents like foto of all the pages of my passport, proof of stay in Thailand for at least 6 months, contract authenticated by the embassy of the country of the company, proof of registration of the company, 6 months payslips and the proof of funds needed to be in English 😅Roman ********
@Santoro **********
holy cow that’s a lot. They just ask for my bank statement to make sure I had $15,000 approximately in the bank account. I’m glad they didn’t ask for pay stubs because I take a draw. Then they came back and asked me for my last year’s income tax return Jean ********
@Santoro **********
Congratulated! Can I askWhat did you do about the part of “authenticated by the embassy of the country”. Because before weeks I asked here but not much information.
