I'm applying for a visa to China while I am in Thailand. I have everything but the Chinese government is asking for a translation of some of my documents. Is there a place in Khon Kaen where I can get the documents officially translated for the Chinese embassy?

Every time I get a visa extension, they always ask me to bring an address or a proof of address from my apartment or hotel I am staying at. Exactly what do they want me to bring and what can I tell the hotel manager in order to get it?

It went well. Make sure to bring a real Thai address. They won't ask for proof, but they want you to have a real address in Chiang Rai. They didn't tell me to come back.

Thank you! I will report back soon! Last time I filled out all the paperwork work before hand, they made me do it again with the forms they had at the office. Oh well, I'll just do everything again just to be safe and save time. 

How do I get a proof of address? What do I show them? 

Soon I will be going to the Chiang Rai Immigration office near the airport to get a visa extension for my American Tourist visa. Can someone confirm exactly what I need to bring? Is it still 1,900 baht in cash and 1 photo? Do I have to bring information about where I am staying? Please let me know what I need before I go? Thank you!

I'm at the embassy. The good news is that they will deliver my visa via postal once it's done. The bad news is that they made me buy an onward ticket. Don't they realize that most of us will exited via land or simply haven't planned when we will leave? 

Thank you. You are the best.

Hey ubon, do I need a bank statement for a tourist visa? Or is this enough? Also, do I need to bring a copy of my passport or is the actual passport enough?

Legally yes, you can, but still police might see it as an opportunity for them.

Thank you, as long as it is legal, I am glad~

Wow, ubonjoe is alive. I am an American citizen, not Korean citizen. But I do have a Korean Residency ID. I need tourist visa because I am an American. Is there anything else I need to bring?

Yeah I can't find it on their site. T_T

Sorry for intruding, but can a tourist rent a car in Thailand without an IDP? I am getting an IDP since I will travel beyond Thailand, but I heard that in Thailand, you can rent a car with a foreign government DL if the DL is in English. Is this true?

I am about to visit the Thai Embassy in Seoul tomorrow morning. Can I confirm the documents required to obtain the tourist visa? I want to make sure I have everything so I don't have to go back and forth.

Anything else I need or am I good to go? I checked the Thai Seoul website, it's pretty garbage. 

Oh sorry, I know that you are right, it's just that in the U.S., I would have to pay a lot more. glad it's different here.

so I don't need to show them my bank account and stuff like that? just fill out the application, 2 photos, and passport copy? nice.

Thank you to you both. 40,000 WON is like USD 35. I can't believe it's that cheap and easy. 

Does anyone have experience with obtaining a tourist visa from the Thai Embassy in Seoul, South Korea? Are there things they ask that are different from another embassy? I am looking to receive a tourist visa as an American citizen. 60 days. Any special steps or procedures that I should be aware of? I believe I must go in directly. If you have experience working with them, how fast were you able to obtain your tourist visa? Does it take months?
