thank you! Can you address the nuance mentioned by other commenters regarding "maybe you don't have to submit a report, but the Thai immigration could be running their own report (Interpol or whatever) without mentioning it." See the comment by
"I think one can assume that they run some background checks. From what I understand, Thailands future plan to use an electronic travel authorization for visa exempt travellers will, if and when being launched, involve security screening of foreigners entering Thailand... that is the plan for people arriving without a visa and I can't imagine them not doing the same for ANY visa applicants... but as I wrote, this is just me guessing."
fair...but that being said, the last part of my post still remains unanswered. If we assume they are doing some "behind the scenes" background checking, does ANYONE on this group know of a single person who was denied based on their background?
