That was fairly straightforward. Completed on my iPad, only thing to note was the process doesn’t allow pdf format so had to copy documents as images.

🤞Sit and wait now …

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user shared their experience of applying for a Thai visa using an iPad, noting that the application process was straightforward, although it required submitting documents as image files (jpg, jpeg, png) rather than PDF format. Comments included discussions about the browser used, concerns regarding application approval timing, and the importance of sharing approval experiences for others. The user later confirmed that after resubmitting due to a flight change, they received approval within two working days.

yeah, pretty much Carl. Just took my time. Of course I’ve not been approved yet so will have to wait and see. Just thought the post may prove helpful to others to let know that everything went smoothly with the application 😊

What do you mean "doesn't seem to accept pdf"? It's clearly written that they accept only image files (jpg jpeg png). This is a fact, not something that "seems".

Not to but in but i read on another site that if you do the TP and use gmail as your email address, then you will quickly get the confirmation email. I myself is supposed to fly on the 10th November as well and I didn't use gmail and I did get the success but not the confirmation email.
