- yes, like I said, they can deny you entry.

My understanding though is that immigration can’t cancel a visa. They can deny you entry, but the visa was issued by MoFA, so only can be canceled by them.

this is as back in 2017, so not sure if that was an option then. Ended up going to Dubai instead. Just needed an Afghanistan embassy to process my visa, so was able to do it in Dubai.

I would argue the unethical element is participating in a system that drugs animals so that you, as a tourist can take a photo.

- What visa was your partner on while in Thailand? I am not sure how this is a different issue though. The original poster was asking if they can apply for a Spanish (Schengen Visa) while in Thailand on a DTV visa. You said yes, but I think it might be a no.

@Todd ********
one of the requirements for applying for a Spanish visa in Bangkok is “7. Proof of residence in the consular district”. It doesn’t clarify what it means by “residence”. As many on here often say, a DTV is a glorified Thai tourist visa. Is that residence?

- for example, when I was in Thailand, visa exempt, I was not able to apply for an India tourist visa.

- are you sure? Some embassies will only issue visas to residents.

Anonymous participant did you check after you uploaded your passport bio page? The webpage will overwrite cells with what it believes it reads on your passport. It is notoriously riddled with errors. Need to review afterwards. Also, little things like middle names. Some applicants have middle names, but they are not included on their passport (only other govt documents), if you include it on your application, you will get a canceled message. Similarly, when it comes to place of passport issued. While your passport might list a province or an embassy, you need to state your nationality/country.

Of course you don’t get a refund
