They could find out by doing a geolocation lookup against your IP address. There was a story recently from a member on this site who applied and was rejected (apparently erroneously) based on not being in the country of application at the time. So they do have some kind of process in place to check. Additionally, part of the application process is uploading travel stamps in your passport from the last 12 months. If you're stamped into a country but not out of it, it could raise red flags.

Thailand’s Election Results May Reverse Cannabis Policy
JayClay replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
On what evidence of past performance would you base such a belief? -
Thailand’s Election Results May Reverse Cannabis Policy
JayClay replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Indeed. It's quite perplexing to think how an ultra-conservative party legalised marijuana, then gets ousted by a liberal party who now want to ban it again! It's one of those "only in Thailand" things, I guess... -

Losing a job, what's with the visa?
JayClay replied to grav's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
It is my understanding that the initial 90 day conversion is not dependent on the employment. Hopefully somebody more knowledgeable can confirm? @DrJack54?? -
Move Forward Scores Surprise Victory; Pita To Become PM
JayClay replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
What a ridiculous analogy! When was Thatcher's sister in power? When was Thatcher's daughter contesting the most recent election? When was Thatcher in exile and the possibility of her return dependant on the outcome of an election? No, discussions about Thaksin in the context of this election have nothing in common with people talking about Thatcher after UK elections (if they ever even did??) -
Another coffee shop near my hotel bites the dust.

He ordered a hot coffee and got a hot coffee, as the term is understood in this country [not iced] If he'd wanted it extra hot he should have asked for extra hot. -

JayClay replied to steven100's topic in General Topics
I thought my comment was clear enough. I'll give it one more go for you if you like: When you are ordering a hot coffee in Thailand you are ordering a coffee that has been made with hot water and doesn't contain ice. The other options are iced coffee or ice blended coffee. The fact that you have ordered a hot coffee, means that you are ordering a coffee that doesn't contain ice. It doe not guarantee it will be any particular temperature. -

JayClay replied to steven100's topic in General Topics
Seriously? A hot drink is "Hot" as in "not iced", not hot as in "exactly the temperature you want it". Unless the OP went to a coffee shop that listed there types of coffee (iced/warm/hot)... -
Sorry. When I said you'd need to be in your home country, that is a specific requirement for the multiple entry tourist visa. I don't know if the evisa system itself has any stipulations that you must apply from your home country. I suspect not, and you should therefore be able to apply for a single entity tourist visa online if you're in a country that supports the evisa system. Hopefully somebody else can confirm?

I particularly like the way they called it 'nonsense' and then went on to agree with you ???? -
The 4 flights I've taken with Qatar in the last 18 months have all had ths same 3-4-3 configuration you're complaining about in this thread. And some of the worst seats I've ever had the misfortune of sitting in. I guess all airlines have gone down that route to try and recoup some of the losses made over the last few years. ????

Intoxicated Man Wades into Pattaya Sea and Spends the Night on Buoy Line
JayClay replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Yes I've noticed plenty. This story, as you acknowledge, is not one of them. -
Intoxicated Man Wades into Pattaya Sea and Spends the Night on Buoy Line
JayClay replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
In the English language a "boyfriend" can refer to a male partner of anh age. I don't know what it was from the OP in particular that prompted your rant, but it's quite common for people to act in a slightly strange manner after having their heart broken. -
Tourists warned against taking ‘Happy Water’ drug in Thailand

Possibly Kratom. A friend of mine once mixed up some kratom into a brown drink and decanted into water bottles. -
Stranded in Thailand: Bankrupt foreign woman unable to return home
JayClay replied to snoop1130's topic in Krabi News
It's highly unlikely she has a work permit for busking, so there's that for starters. It's also possible she's on overstay, so there's another potential option. I'm not saying that I agree with the statement that she should be jailed, but there's almost certainly grounds on which it could be actioned. -
Anyone have any experience with Redmi phones?

You can't without root access, as far as I'm aware. -
For me, the real benefit of a buffet is being able to enjoy a nice variety of different foods all in one sitting. As long as you can restain yourself and only take a tiny quantity of each, it can't be beaten for value. To order five separate dishes from a menu would be expensive, fattening and wasteful. At a buffet you can sample a mouthful of 10 to 15 things and only be marginally uncomfortable when you leave ????. I've never been to a buffet where I've been grossed out by others pigging out around me. I'm sure such places exist but, for whatever reason, I've managed to avoid them so far.
