Hallo everyone.

I am in thailand by my own sail boat right now, but want to apply for the dtv Visa (Digital nomad).

Can I leave Thailand to Malaysia (Langkawi) and apply for the Thai e-visa in Germany, munich from there?

And if yes: Can I already apply when I have the exit stamp from Thailand in my passport? Or do I need to wait for the entry stamp from Langkawi?

(I will be around one week on the water, sailing vom Phuket to Langkawi...and want to use the Transit time already for the apply process).

Thank you for your answers🙏

Stefan

IF you entered thailand on a tourist visa from the thai consulate in Pretoria and it has any thai writing on the visa itself you CANNOT go to Vientiane and get a visa. :/

IF you have a visa from the consulate in Pretoria and it has NO Thai writing on it OR you came into the country on a 30 day visa exempt entry stamp you're fine to go to Vientiane for a visa. It's only visas from the thai consulate in Pretoria that have thai writing on them. :(

This is an example of what it looks like;
