Submitted on 9 April. Asked for extra documents last week. Until today 24 April still asking for additional documents like every page of my passport and extra passport photo.
My entry stamp is only valid till 7 May. What happens if it is not approved by 7 May? Anyone got into this situation before?
I applied online a month ago and still no response. I assume this is because of the high season and processing takes longer. Has anyone experienced similar waiting times?
Hi Everyone. I've lived/worked in Thailand for 17 years, so would be happy to offer insights on various matters.
I've got an evisa question if anyone confidently knows the rules. I applied for an O-A evisa with multiple entry about 5 weeks ago but they continue to drag their feet on processing it. In the meantime, I have a flight booked for Thursday that would be costly to rebook. I also have some need to be in country by the weekend. I am wondering whether I should keep my flight and enter on a 30 day visa exemption and try to get the O-A visa put into my passport at Chaeng Wattana once the email with the approved evisa shows up. Any thoughts on how likely I could accomplish this? Of course the alternative would be to fly out and back in once the evisa is available, but frankly I would like to avoid that... Any thoughts?
Has anyone had any luck getting in touch with the Royal Thai Embassy of New York?? I have been calling and emailing for days and have not gotten a reply. They currently have my passport and all of the required documents for a non-immigrant B visa and COE. I have permission from the Thai government to work in Thailand and my school in Thailand has been calling/emailing. I am also booked on a repatriation flight and have my ASQ booked.
Has anyone actually talked to someone from the Royal Thai Embassy of New York or been able to receive a visa/COE from them?
Hey Guys any further murmurings regarding 1 July mandatory health insurance for O A Non immigrant Long Stay visas.
Currently in Darwin waiting on Police Clearance Certificate...thought it would be through already. So it looks like I will miss lodging my application by 1st July.
Can only hope the proposed Health Insurance is NOT implemented on 1 July.
