S/E Asian Thai Consulates going to eVisa online system effective Tuesday Oct 8th

[Tod Daniels]

ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS;

 

The following Thai consulates in S/E Asia will go to online eVisa applications ONLY starting the 8th of Oct. They will discontinue any walk up/in person visa applications at that time.

Actually some of them stopped accepting in person applications already and have consular services closed until they open on the eVisa system on Tuesday

Vietnam - Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City

Malaysia - Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Kota Bharu

Cambodia - Phnom Penh

 

The follow consulates are still walk up consulates (they will not be changing to eVisa at this time) BUT you need to book an appt online to get in the gate

Lao - Vientiane, Savannakhet

Burma - Yangon

 

The following consulates are walk up consulates no appt needed

Indonesia - Jakarta

Taiwan - Taipei

Philippines - Manila

 

You have to physically be IN the country whose thai consulate you are using on the eVisa system. 

Also the consulates that used to sell year/multi-Non-O's will no longer be able to seeing as that is NOT a choice on the eVisa system (so anyone thinking of going to HCMC year/multi Non-O think again 😕 )
For that year long multi-entry Non-O visa based on marriage you use Savannakhet or Yangon (where reports are that it's issued)

But Savannakhet isn't going e-visa (yet) - did they stop multi's anyway?

well spotted 😄
I edited the post to reflect that savannakhet and yangon will be about the only two 'walk up' consulates to get year/multi Non-O's from
 

People said they got them in Vientiane too but I can't find anyone who did it this year so dunno
