The Thai embassy in your country is disgusting. I have to apply there also. I got approved on day 45 after application. Few days before my flight.

What if I do 2 SETV instead. Let's say first one I get from Romanian embassy. Then after 90 days in Thailand, I go to Vietnam and apply for SETV there. The Romania embassy have a rule: "7. ID or residence permit as a proof of permanent residency in Romania or Bulgaria and a copy of the document". So I can apply only if I am a resident of Bulgaria/Romania (which I am). Is it possible to apply in Vietnam? Won't they require the same rule - that I have residency in Vietnam? In case it is possible, will an exit ticket to Europe be okay, or they will want round trip back to Vietnam?

So, I have to invest in multiple plane tickets and if I get denied a visa, I have to stomach the financial loss of these tickets?

Passport: Bulgaria. Country of residence: Bulgaria. Embassy to apply to: Romania.
