Evisa

[dlvinthai]

I have had my eMETV approved, but I am wondering how this works. Does the Thai Consulate (in LA) forward the approval to Thai immigration in Bangkok so when I get to the immigration booth they will have the approval, or do I need to take a copy of the approval with me? I will be entering Thailand on October 3.

 

Thank you.

You need to print out the e visa you received by email from the consulate to show immigration.

Be sure to keep a copy of it in case the email goes away for some unknown reason.

You will need a copy, firstly to check in at the airport or they may assume you are going visa exempt.

Guy checking me in at LHR only looked at my passport and then started quizzing me about how long I was staying. I pointed out the piece of paper in my passport and he had to call someone, never heard of an E-visa.

Which airline did you fly with from LHR?

I applied for 60 day tourist evisa from London last Friday and I got a successful email the following Tuesday morning. ( This week )

It contains a PDF to print out ( same as the evisa site)

Cost was £30

RTE London are really efficient.

 

I applied for my Non O the day after QE2's funeral and received it 51 hours later.
