As a result, we will be issuing letters (at no fee and via email) to those Australians “There is no fee for this service. The letter will be sent by email and no physical copies will be provided,” “I know previously we said that we would not sign these letters. That was at a time when we were trying to encourage everyone to leave Thailand, but now we can see that it is very hard to leave and we are happy to provide those letters. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
