Hi everyone,

I know this topic often sparks passionate discussions on Facebook, I’m not sure why, but I’m asking because I couldn’t find the information in official sources.

If you’re traveling around Asia and applying for a DTV or another Thai visa (following the online process in the country you’re currently in), what happens if the process takes 10 days or more and you’re in a different country by the time it’s completed?

Has anyone been in this situation and can share their experience or advice?

Please, I’m looking for factual insights and not speculation or aggressive comments.

NOTE: For those who argue that in the past, you needed to wait in the same country where you applied, I believe the main reason was that you had to pick up your passport. Even in the worst-case scenario back then, the waiting time was never as long as the 10 days (or more) that many are currenlty experiencing with DTVs or other visas.

Thanks
