Yesterday, 2019/11/11, I was notified of a fine 10,000 baht or jail time for holding an E-ITA IDP as it is not legally recognized in Thailand.
False advertising, negligence. As a California-based company, they are in violation of the US Federal Trade Commission truth-in-advertising laws. Private litigation is justified, specifically under the Lanham Act.
Don't be a sucker to this deceptive and fraudulent company. And if you're in jail in some foreign country for their fake IDP, make sure to sue them when you're free.
