Diane Lesley no. Only Vietiane in Laos allows it. Penang can ask you to supply a flight back to your own country.

Best not to use KL if you can't supply EXACTLY what they require. You simply won't get a visa there otherwise.

Sorry Robert, i missed it!

Aren't Phuket also hard core about the TM30?

At the moment....I've been having some PM's with the people that run the London Thai Embassy page via Facebook regarding the new E visa system now being rolled out in London. I'll just leave it there for now 😉

Penang will be out too. Not sure regarding KL with multiple entrys and red stamps. I wouldn't bother with Manila either to be honest.

Someone will be along soon with the information

Ukrainian passport.

KL is a fabulously multicultural city. Hard to beat it for shopping and dining out experiences. It loses Bangkok in the value for money stakes and infrastructure.

If your in Pattaya, flights to KL from U-Tapao are cheap. Fly out in the morning and fly back in the afternoon with Airasia around 3pm. Gives time to collect your passport and visa and make the afternoon flight. The flights are not everyday though so check your times.

Oh, there are NO meter taxis operating from U-Tapao. A taxi using Grab from KL airport to the Embassy is around 65 Ringgit.

Tip number 2. DO NOT bring anything back from Malaysia you are not supposed too. No extra cigarettes, drink etc. You cannot get out of U-Tapao after collecting your luggage without having your bags scanned, inc your hand luggage. I fly that route frequently and many people are fined and have there stuff confiscated. The fine for extra cigarettes is 20,000 baht a carton and you will lose them.

Tip 3. Be sure your hand luggage flying from KL only weighs 7kg or less flying Airasia. They weigh ALL hand luggage at the barrier in KLIA 2 terminal building before you go through immigration.
