i agree it’s clear as mud but you have to be dumber than hell to think that a weeks cooking class or any other ridiculous activity will satisfy the requirements, that doesn’t absolve people from basic logic and sense
there’s also many great places that aren’t pattaya and have none of the sex tourism, also the beaches are terrible. Going to pattaya for none of what it is notorious for is like going to an ice cream shop and asking if they sell hot dogs
ask stupid questions get stupid answers, no mental gymnastics going on here. Maybe this dad will ask himself why his son is so helpless and something good can come out from this post
Why not take your own advice and stop being a hypocrite
i’ve interacted with the embassy i use after the evisa system was put in to place, it could have changed in the last year or it could just be the standard inconsistency between embassies.
it happened to me once a couple years ago dealing with the NY embassy, another time they asked for a separate letter to grant me a return ticket past 60 days, that was done through email.
