TLDR : Answer Summary

To obtain a Thailand STV visa, you must apply at a Thai embassy in your home country or country of legal residence, as it cannot be obtained upon arrival in Thailand. A suggestion is to use the Thai embassy in New York City and submit your application online.

There is 0 need to use an agent for this. They won't help the least bit other than hold your hand while you submit your documents online.

For the most part, visas must be obtained outside of the country. The STV can only be obtained at a Thai embassy in your home country or country of legal residence. Use the Thai embassy in NYC and submit an application online.
