It is my understanding that only the Embassy in the US will issue ME Tourist Visas (and my impression that it is problematic doing so). Based on my my residence location I would use the Chicago consulate offices for a SE TV and out of curiosity I have looked at the visa application forms on both sites. The form on the Chicago site does have a field called Number of Entries Requested so I am asking if anyone has been issued a ME TV from that office recently? Another reason that I am asking is I have a friend who lives in Ohio and he gets his METV every year from the office in New York. Or should I just apply at the Embassy and hope for the best?

Cheers

I see there is a separate thread for METVs....if admin does not delete this one, please move it accordingly.

I cannot move your topic to another one.

The Chicago consulate is a official Thai consulate along with the ones in New York and Los Angeles. They can issue  you a METV. Only the honorary consulates cannot issue multiple entry visas.

Oh great! Thanks Joe
