I agree to disagree - but I see your point and I respect your earnestness.

@Graham *****

That may be the case, but that isn't the application. But as I pointed out above, our opinions aren't a concern to the people processing the application.

Come man you've been in Thailand to know - just because a thing says something, doesn't make it true

@Rene *****

That's the pre-application, you'll need to go beyond that to get the actual application.

You know.. The truth of matter is your opinions aren't considered when they review the visa application (which so not what's in that screenshot).

If the embassy doesn't taken issue - why do you?? More curious what good does it do you to defend non-existent "rules"..

You act as though you've never been to Thailand.. People who have been to Thailand would know, people drive down the wrong side of the road all the the time. There are different rules for different immigration offices, police take bribes - etc etc

US Credit reports are unheard of in Thailand.

Also cash is king. For paying rent you are better off using a bank account but it's not necessary.

I did mine a couple of days ago. I uploaded only jpg. For proof address they accepted my TX driver's license.

100% success rate suggests it's not luck.

@Graham *****

They don't ask current location - they ask about residence.

1900 baht at the immigration office will get you the extension. If crossing by land you can do two border bounces. Doing border bounce by air is unlimited.

I have in the past gotten METV visa and do a border bounce to get 60 days for each border bounce. For me I found it easier to get stamped in for 60 days than going to immigration to get a 30 day extension then go do border bounce 30 days later.

Despite what some may say.. You can apply for and get a METV eVisa while not in your home country.

My experience with Thailand, where there is a rule, there is a loophole. Good or not, it works

Just received my eVisa from my home country while not in my home country. I am quite sure you are mistaken.
