miami honorary thai consulate questions

[gk10002000]

List of documents needed for Tourist Visa from Thai Honorary Consulate in Miami FL.  Got two questions:

 

Item 2:   the visa application asks for contact in Thailand.    Won't have one.  What do you do?  Just wing it and put down maybe the manager of the hotel you are thinking of staying at?

Item 5:  Bank statement showing $700.  Easy enough, but is there an implied or needed seasoning period that shows 700 for several months?

 

Just trying to do things right so no go backs or extra trips.

 

Thanks

I assume you mean reference in Thailand under 5 on this form http://www.ibuildwebs.com/thaiconsulate/Thailand-Visa-Application.pdf.

You could probably leave that blank. I don't think they would expect a tourist to have a reference here.

It only has to be in the bank on the date you apply for the visa. The $700 is to meet the standard 20k baht required for all visa applications.

On the German Thai Visa application form they have a note that the contact in Thailand field is only required for business visas, probably in USA it's similar

You don’t need to provide a contact. Just leave it blank.

No seasoning needed.
