thetravelbee Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Hi everyone, does anyone know if I can apply for a non immigrant type visa F (diplomatic) from Phom Penh ? I will soon receive the MFA authorisation and need to pick one embassy to apply to in one of Thailand neighboring countries. Was thinking Cambodia. No info provided on their website????. Or any other websites for that matter. Is there a better place to apply nearby Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 The immigration website refers to the non-f as being for government duties. See: https://www.immigration.go.th/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/16.FOR-OFFICIAL-GOVERNMENT-DUTIES-NON-F.pdf If on a visa exempt or tourist visa entry you could apply at immigration. The embassy in Kuala Lumpur does show it. https://image.mfa.go.th/mfa/0/n3gTFT2TOE/Visa_Requirements/1.pdf The consulate in Savannakhet Laos also mentions it. https://savannakhet.thaiembassy.org/th/publicservice/104409-other-types-of-visa?page=5d84a44c15e39c26b400453e&menu=5d84a44c15e39c26b400453f You would have to contact the embassy in Phnom Penh about it.

BritTim Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 You do not mention your nationality. That might be relevant in recommending a good embassy to use. For instance, in Kuala Lumpur, they really like nationals of some countries and are biased against those from certain other nations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes 5 days and USD 80. I will give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian passport. They mentioned Kuala Lumpur but would prefer Cambodia. Seems they do it there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phnom Penh is slow, but should otherwise be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
