ORIGINAL POSTER

I am Canadian living in Philippines.

I went to apply online and immediately says can only do in person.

If i put any other country as residence it will let me continue.

Has anyone ran into this before? The embassy is 5 hours away so i was hoping to avoid travel just to apply.

And as far as i can see online and in person are the only 2 options ???

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

A Canadian residing in the Philippines encountered difficulties applying for a Thai visa online, finding the system restricts them to in-person applications. Despite attempts to continue the online application process, they were blocked and faced a significant travel distance to the Thai embassy. Other commenters confirmed similar experiences, indicating that in-person applications appear to be the only option available.

Henrik *****

You have to travel to another country, if you want to apply in another country, and that will probably take longer than 5 hours.
