Anybody have recent experience pulling Thai Visa from Seoul? Thoughts?
Answer summary
The discussion revolves around the experiences of individuals obtaining Thai visas from the Consulate in Seoul, particularly focusing on the Non-Immigrant Type O visa for those married to Thai nationals. Comments reveal a lack of detailed information online, but members share that the consulate can issue a year-long, multi-entry visa without proof of funds. Some describe the process as straightforward with a two to three-day turnaround, and the requirement for onward travel proof is mentioned.

@tod I found that Sri Lanka has a 5 day turn around.. Is that common outside of the neighboring countries - to take so long?

nope, the norm is turn in one morning pick up the next afternoon. Until I read about the thai consulate in Seoul's 3 day turn around I was only aware of Phnom Penh having it.

, I know it's one of the 3 thai consulates in the area that will issue a year-long, multi-entry Non-Immigrant Type O visa based on marriage to a thai without proof of funds, BUT that's about all I know about it. I googled around and there are not all that many reports on the inter-web of people going there for their visas. :/

What I did find is that they require proof of onward travel and they have a 3 day turn around to get your passport (like the thai consulate in Phnom Penh).

@Alan often times members of this group can offer insights that the Embassy/Consulate's web-page do not. Particularlly if they are strict, quick, if they issue to non residents.

Unless they do a bus there and back for about 300 baht, I doubt it.
