When applying for evisa (London) and they ask for extra documents, have people found they ask for all extra documents at once or do you send one required document and then they say there’s more to send? I just want to get an idea of how quickly the process should take once I send them what they asked for. Thanks in advance.

For the evisa application where it asks for intended date of arrival and flight number, I don't have a return flight to thailand booked yet and will book one after it gets approved, what did people put in this box? Especially for flight number?

DTV approved in Bern (Switzerland) 🇨🇭🇹🇭🎉

Here my experience:

Appilied on thursday 31.10.2024 at 16:00 and got approved today monday 4.11.2024 at 10:00. It went super fast i’m so surprised.

It was on EVISA and i provided:

- face picture with white backround

- passport pic (only front page)

- flight ticket to thailand

- booking of hotel in thailand

- remote working contract

- 1 bank printscreenshot of my savings account

That’s all.

No further information was needed.

Roll on thailand kaaaaa 😃

Which one of the two embassies in Vietnam is preferable right now with eVisa? Ho Chi Minh or Hanoi? Do they take about the same time for processing? I already used the search function but most people just write Vietnam so I'm not actually sure

Anyone know if it's possible to go to an embassy or something and get the sticker after you get the DTV online? I feel like having to always have the print out on hand every time I enter the country will be a bit of a hassle.

Side note, for people who have used the evisa system and gotten denied. Did your application go from pending document check to pending approval or just get denied after the pending document check stage?

Hi, Can I apply for an evisa while in UK for single entry tourist visa...but fly and spend a week in Malaysia first? So in other words have the visa ready from the UK while I am in the UK? Or would I need to apply for single entry while in Malaysia?

Hi good day I’m a Jamaican living in Korea how do I go about applying for a Thailand evisa ?

Hi all , my boys in EU university now and would like to come back during their summer school break, they have requested the 3 month’s tourist visa through thailand evisa online and paid. But it takes so long and no response or feed back for more documents yet. Anyone know how long it takes for them to issue such visa? Thank you ahead 🙏(I am just so worried their visas will not be issued before the flight on 23rd May.😅)

ATTENTION MEMBERS

The eVisa portal for visas to thailand.

We get a lot of people posting questions about the eVisa website and the requirements for specific visas, etc.

You have to realize that the consulates/countries using the eVisa website each have their OWN criteria for the different visas (usually listed on that consulates' web-page).

Once you pick your country, and the appropriate thai consulate based on where you are in that country, you follow the criteria to get a visa from that specific consulate and your visa application is processed by that specific consulate.

This is why we say READ the requirements for the visa at the thai consulate you're applying at.

-Most consulates say you have to be IN the country where the thai consulate is located to apply for an eVisa thru them

-SOME consulates want confirmed hotel/lodging for the whole duration of your stay (on tourist visa), meaning they won't accept just a booking that isn't confirmed, where as some only need a few days or a reservation of booking

-Some consulates require proof of onward travel within the days you'll get stamped in for (on tourist visa), some don't require it

-Almost all consulates require you show proof of flight from the country where that consulate is to thailand although some are more flexible than others

-Processing time varies a LOT between the consulates <- meaning they are NOT the same :O Sometimes even between the consulates in the same country :/

So again, if you're applying for a visa to thailand thru the eVisa portal the first place you need to go to is the website of the consulate you're applying thru for requirements, processing time, etc

The Consulates are pretty good about emailing people for more information if they require it during the application process.

Go SLOW, take your time, get the data entered correctly, upload the asked for documentation. You can stop in the application process and save your progress then go back to it and resume applying.

READ the User Manual as it has good info if you haven't done an eVisa before.

I think right now there's 25 countries that participate in the eVisa system with 41 thai consulates in those countries using it.

Something to keep in mind is a single entry tourist visa and a single entry Non-Immigrant visa are both valid for 3 months after they're issued <- meaning you have 3 months to ENTER thailand and get stamped in for the amount of time that visa allows.

That means there's no reason to wait until shortly before you travel to apply for single entry visa and run the risk of it not being approved in time for your flight here.

We wish everyone success in their eVisa application endeavors (y)

For our Australian members you can no longer apply for any visas by the “old method” of sending in your passport to the Thai embassy/consulate to get a sticker affixed to your passport.

As of March 19th Australia will switch to the “sticker-less” evisa system which means everything is done online.

If you live in NSW you apply and choose the Sydney Consulate. Elsewhere you apply choosing the Canberra Embassy.

The option to apply on line will not go live until the 19th. Until then you’re in limbo as they won’t accept applications anymore via post.

As yet we don’t know the new pricing structure for visas from Australia although they have said there will be price increases.

New Zealand are switching on the same date and have released new prices - some 3-5x higher than previous. Australia may have the same sort of increase but as yet this is unknown.

The online system to apply is here. [members only]/
