I need some advice. I was helping my parents with their visa for Thailand and it got rejected for “incorrect travel document.” They are U.S permanent residents (green card holders) and they have a travel document “Reentry Permit” issued from US homeland Security. They were able to obtain a Lao visa but not a Thai visa? I called the Thailand embassy in Washington and they told me that they do not accept reentry permits. So what is the correct document/ travel document I need? Thanks in advance!
TLDR : Answer Summary
A user seeks advice on obtaining a Thai visa for their parents, who are U.S. permanent residents holding a reentry permit, which was rejected by the Thai embassy. The conversation reveals that Thailand requires a valid passport for visa applications, and reentry permits are not acceptable as travel documents. Various solutions are discussed, including applying for a passport from their country of citizenship or pursuing U.S. citizenship for a passport, as the parents were born in Laos and are considered stateless.
