Not being able to come back to T is an annoyance. Being retarded is a lifelong illness. Tell your pal to go to the Philippines. Just as nice as T, way easier to communicate with the indigenous, and mental deficiencies are not as noticed.

Um, since when does FB allow groups/pages to be sold/bought by a controlling administrator/founder/"owner" since no one individual (or company other than Meta) can actually "own" a group/page according to FB TOS? Has this been changed? I started a coupla buy/sell groups in another country with 80k-ish members each now....would love to make some cash off them if legit.....

If someone is a legal resident (with relevant residence visa) of another country and can prove it with a copy of the alien ID/residence card, then you are correct. But if someone is a tourist in that other country, then the e-visa application gets routed to the Thai embassy of the home country/passport country. The OP stated she is "traveling in Japan" so I assume she is a tourist. Her only choice in this matter is to go to the actual T embassy in Tokyo (actually I'm not even sure if they service non-residents but there's a chance and a phone call is free).

Yes but your application will be forwarded by the system to the respective Thai embassy in your home country.

@Paul *******

You are a moron.

You have roughly a 40% chance of being denied entry at DMK/BKK/HKT, more so at CMX. Go spend some time in another country for a while (6 months) would be my advice.

@Tom ********

Took those chimps THREE WEEKS to do the same for me. And yea, just one of many BB episodes. Now happy at Kasikorn.
