Greetings from Estonia !

Question is : If we don't have Thai embassy in our country?

We needed to go to Finland before this Immigration rule change to get any type of Thailand Visa.

Does it still works or now we can only dream about DTV visa ?

What is going on 😁
Answer summary
If you are in a country without a Thai embassy, you can typically apply for a Thai visa through the designated embassy in a nearby country, such as Finland for Estonia. This means you may not need to travel for your application, although specific rules can vary depending on your nationality and the embassy's policies. It's essential to check if you can apply online or if in-person visits are required.

Each country of the world has a Thai embassy assigned, in some cases it's located in another country. You apply online and do everything as usual.

Some examples: Canada is in charge of Jamaica

Chile is in charge of Costa Rica

Both embassies are located thousands of km away from the country, yet people from Jamaica and Costa Rica just apply online without going anywhere.

You have your “headquarters” embassy which is Helsinki so you have to go there.

incorrect. For countries that do not have a Thai embassy, they are assigned to a Thai embassy in another country (usually the closet one). For those specific countries, you can remain in your country and apply via your designated embassy, as that embassy has jurisdiction over your country as well. No need to travel there, unless it is one of the few countries that requires in person payment
