Where should I apply for a Thailand tourist visa if I hold an Indian passport but live in Spain?
## HELLO EVERYONE! THANKS FOR ACCEPTING ME, ADMINS!
# I have a question regarding the Thailand tourist visa.
I hold an Indian passport but I live in Barcelona, Spain and have a temporary residency here.
I will be flying from Barcelona to Bangkok in a few months. My question is, where do I need to apply for a visa (India or Spain)? Or am I eligible for a visa on arrival? Thanks a lot in advance for reading my post. 😍🤩

Answer summary
An Indian passport holder residing in Barcelona can apply for a Thailand tourist visa at the Thai consulate in Madrid, Spain, since Spain is not on the eVisa online application system. Alternatively, they can obtain a visa on arrival upon arriving in Thailand, which currently allows for a stay of 30 days, provided they show proof of onward travel, 10,000 baht in funds, and accommodation booking.

Contact the thai consulate in Madrid. Spain is NOT on the eVisa online application system, applications go thru the thai consulate in Madrid
I would imagine (although it's just a guess) that if you have something showing you have residence there you should be able to apply for a tourist visa from the consulate there.
However if you cannot you CAN as a passport holder from india apply for a visa on arrival here for 2000baht when you land.
The program was for 15 days but recently increased to 30 days), you will need to show onward travel in 30 days, proof of 10k baht or the equivalent and proof of lodging when you land and stamp in.
