@Todd ********
yes, I already looked into it. 3500 baht for round trip van service, cambodia visa, and assistance through the process. Yes its annoying, yes I have to be there at 5 am, but I'll deal with it.

agreed. It's not so easy to find. I'm retired, and all the peeps I know are dinosaurs like me.i can't understand why they won't accept documents at the consulate!

@Bob *********
because although I live within walking distance to the Thai consulate in NYC, they refuse to let me do it in person. Whenever I try using the E visa site I have problems with uploads. I'm not the most savvy guy when it comes to this stuff.

Thanks for that, but is travel possible at this point? I just want to understand all of my options. If travel is possible, I would prolly do it any way, so why bother with the TV?

@Richard ********
I may just get the TV. I do want to travel, but even with requirements dropped you have to fill out stuff on line (at least for Singapore and Malaysia). I'll firm up everything in the fall. Thank you for the responses.

I had the same question. Thai consulate in NYC said I needed 60 day return and change the flight and get the extension in Thailand. I explained to her the issue of change fees and she shrugged her shoulders. I won't have to worry about change fees because I'm using miles, but it's still a pretty doofy system. Also, the E-Visa site requires evidence of a 60 day return I believe.

@James *******
thank you. So the metv visa is mute because I can't leave and come back right now. I didn't realize the stv was still a thing, but it appears it's just what I'm looking for. I'll look into itm thanks again.
