Maybe they have sussed out that your application is untruthful

Ian Carman yep. It could be because the application says you are in Moscow and your digital footprint shows Bali!

How did you circumvent the requirement to show you are in the country where you applied for the visa?

Don’t worry bro happened to me and it was granted like 18 hours before the flight they’re aware of this.

Do you need a visa to enter Thailand then?

The real question is WHY did you apply thru the thai consulate in Moscow when you're in Bali? You have to physically be IN the country whose thai consulate you're using to apply for a visa at Why didn't you just apply for the 90 day Non-O visa thru the thai consulate in Jakarta? You only need to show you're in the country legally to apply for a "regular" visa (Non-O, Non-B, Non-ED, tourist) You got no choice but to wait it out and see if they approve/reject the application..

Vin Gadjo wrong, if you enter and get a 30 day stamp you can apply for a 30 day extension IF you qualify for the 30 day visa exempt which is what I was asking

This way it surely will be rejected; the question is maybe he can even extend the VISA he already got now by GOING to the local immigration office
