ORIGINAL POSTER
DTV APPROVED

London Thai Embassy

Applied 24th Aug

(Waited to finalise my flight booking)

Submitted flight booking 23rd Sept

Received 24th Sept

Documents required

Contract from company stating the right to work abroad.

Letter addressed to Thai embassy confirming my role and right to work abroad.

Bank statement with 500,000thb from ONE ACCOUNT. Statement PDF.

I had initially not attached flight info to the application as I applied with Pedang Besar as my entry. I then had to prove travel from London - Thailand (including any layovers) and show my flight ticket.

Visa was issued the following day after submitting my flight.

Im thinking about to fly from Brazil , going to visit my parents on Xmas. Flight ticket , why do they want it X) At least looks like was simple. Maybe can use those temporary tickets from onwardflight haha

@Eduardo ********
Yes but don't forget the yellow fever vaccination certificate. They'll want to see a copy of that to enter Thailand as you're Brazilian / coming from Brazil.

I have no idea whether a medical contraindication certificate for yellow fever is accepted by Thai authorities. Singapore requires those who present such a certificate to quarantine for 6 days!

Is the letter addressed to the Embassy describing your role and right to work abroad from you or from your company?

Do need to contact your company? Do I need to give my HR department a heads up to expect a call from an embassy?

My company's HR department is abysmal and I worry that that might cause an easily avoidable issue. 😩

@Quincy ******
I would use something like this format then have ai translate it into Thai to accompany.

I seriously doubt they'll ever call your employer, unless there's other questionable things
