There were a few previously that were ‘walk ups’ as in you went there but now, all visas for Thailand are processed online. You do have to be in the country you’re applying in when you apply, and during the process until the decision is made. Some only allow those with residence in that country to apply so check the website of the embassy you’re thinking of using first.

Use the search tool in this group and you’ll see many posts about timeframes and processes from embassies and consulates in many different countries.

Good luck 😊

TM30 to be filed either by your landlord/hotel within 24 hours of your arrival there (if you stay in a hotel first, then move to an apartment for instance, the hotel will file one for you, then you need to make sure another one is filed when you move in. You’ll need a copy of that when you do your 90 day report.

The only way to apply is online. If your application won’t be accepted by the embassy in Spain, your best bet is to travel to a South East Asian country like Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia etc.

They accept applications from non residents.

Anonymous participant or give you the relevant documents so you can file it yourself

It’s a little bit more than ‘fill out the TM30 and sign’.

It’s not just a piece of paper they fill out and it’s done. They need to actually file the TM30 with the immigration office, or give you the relevant documents so you can file it yourself.

The paper you take with you for your 90 day report is a copy of the filed TM30

The only address registration you need to concern yourself with after you enter Thailand is the TM30 (to be done within 24 hours of arrival at any address) and the 90 day report (89 days after arrival in the country).

The ministry of foreign affairs is the authority that issues, and indeed created the DTV

You should contact them with details of your program.

It does, however, seem to be more suited to an ED visa, due to the internship side of the program

It neither helps nor hinders your application, although there’s maybe a couple of squirrelly embassies/consulates in Malaysia that like to see a long lease. Usually though, any accommodation is fine. Many places just ask for an address and require no proof of renting or booking.

London embassy does not require that. Nor does anyone need your ‘facepalm’ cartoon or people laughing at others posts. It’s not a good look, especially when your comments are incorrect.

I tried to register for True Money a while ago so I could pay for stuff in 7-11 (they won’t let me pay with my Thai bank app or Bangkok Bank debit card) but the registration was too difficult.
