Thai visa for zambians

[nirav008]

Hi,

I've been to Thailand before, and wish to visit the country again. I hold a Zambian passport, and I am up-to-date on my medical. But if I do require more examinations for Zambian passport holders, then I do not mind taking more exams. How easy is it to get visas now for Zambians?

But I live in the US now, do I have to go all the way to South Africa to apply for a Thai visa?

Do you have residency in US? Then you can apply there.

What US state are you in?

I don't have residency in the US yet, it is still in process. I am in Texas. Can I apply here in Texas for a Thai Visa?

Fester,

What do you mean it is hard for Africans to get visas? I've never heard any incidents about bad things. What are the bad things that have happened, were they Zambian Passport holders? Thanks for the info, and your help.

No more visa renewals for Africans

Fester,

I read through it, and I appreciate your help. I've been to Thailand before, when I used to live in my homeland country Zambia(I was about 12-13yrs old). I'm 20 now, and wish to visit it again but want a visa from the States. I'm mainly going to visit my relatives there. Anyways, I hope everything goes well...

Cheers.
