Don’t try to leave the country during the process, they will likely cancel your application and you will lose 10,000 THB

You are unlikely to get called for an interview unless they want to carry out further checks etc. They do call anyone for an interview that they suspect is not in the country at the time of applying. Play by the rules, chill wait 5-10 days excl. Thai public holidays which could cause delays. HCMC is a great place to apply, the City is great, excellent prices for boutique hotels, restaurants and transportation by say Grab is so cheap GL

agree, far too many cheap skates around, can’t even afford a nice trip away to a neighbouring Country. Vietnam is very nice and so inexpensive. Luang Prabang for the winter period is lovely and relaxing, many other options

Can’t see why anyone wouldn’t take a nice short trip abroad, rather than giving them another B1900 to end up in an immigration office 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

All applicants should triple check all the information you submit, simple errors (which can easily be avoided) are often being made.

I suggest you apply in a quiet environment free of distractions ie. Your home, hotel room etc, not a cafe etc otherwise the mistake is costly B10,000! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Do it yourself, it’s straightforward, just make sure you have 500k min THB or equivalent and the gym is officially accredited by The Thai government

If you meet the requirements, read the official website, you will be approved providing you have submitted a correctly filled online application usual with 7-10 working days (slower around Thai Public Holidays)

Rent only in Thailand, you just never know if another military coup is coming.
