Congratulations 🎉 How long was your bank statement that you showed to the embassy?Su ********

Thanks. The embassy in Yangon isn’t strict like the others. I only deposited few days before i printed out the statement and they accepted it. But it has to be your own account. They don’t accept the sponsorship.Elmira **************

@Su *******
did you feel safe in Yangon?Su ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Sab ****
it was very safe. The only thing was that the police asked questions at the airport before checking in at immigration. Some Burmese people weren’t allowed to fly for no reason. For foreigners, it should be ok.Reply to

Awesome! I had no clue that Myenmar's Thai embassy was operating. Sad how the news negatively shapes a Westerners perspective. I thought the entire country was war-torn. Turns out it's just a small section in the north.

So they spelled your surname wrong or is it wrong in your facebook profile? Might be a problem. YaDana and YaOana.

ORIGINAL POSTERBen Sand Ghostkamera They spelt in wrong in the visa. I went to the embassy the next day to get it fixed. They just rewrote it with a pen and stamp on it. Came to thailand and no issue so far.

ORIGINAL POSTER@Todd ********
not really. Was even surprised since i anticipated they would make it hard. But was smooth and easy.Jack *******
@Su *******
are you a local Myanmar person and what reason did you state for applying?Su ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Jack ******
Yes I'm Burmese.Jack *******
@Su *******
maybe the reason. Not heard anyone else yet going there. Was it in person or online and just sticker at Embassy!Su ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Jack ******
get an online appointment, go to the embassy in person to summit the documents, and in the same day, they schedule for the quick interview. If you get accepted, you pay 400usd right after. Then you collect your passport with the sticker in it at the embassy in 2-3 business days. Very simple.Jack *******
@Su *******
so cool. This is better than they apply onlineReply to
