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]/
