Thai Consulate In Denver Co

[NanLaew]

What's the latest information on getting a Non-B visa from the RTC in Denver? Easy? Extra paperwork?

Thanks!

I suggest contacting them ... they require an appointment. They are less friendly than they were when Dawn was there in 2003 (or I should say they were less friendly in 2007 than they were in 2003!)

^ and that would explain why my email to Dawn just bounced! Time to phone someone. Thanks!

Not sure about Denver, but several member reports have indicated both Portland, Oregon and Houston, Texas consulates are helpful.

^^ and their voice mail doesn't give specifics of the appointment process, only that they are only open mornings Mon-Thu. I can leave a message but they won't return long distance calls.... I am in TX.

...and Monday is Presidents Day!!!

Merde!

Houston is a good option

My fave option so far is/has been Perth ... mainly so I don't have to go to Texas AND Denver (family in both places!)

[NanLaew]

Done and dusted!

The RTC in Denver will issue the visa same-day tomorrow (Thursday in US) since we have an urgent travel scenario. Our consultant is in Durango so he will fly there tomorrow and get the visa, go home and pack before heading for Bangkok on Sunday.

Houston takes 3 working days so handy for normal applications or applications by mail.

Perth is an option we keep in mind when bringing in someone from the antipodes or SE Asia... not practical for a guy coming from the US at such short notice.

Only ThaiVisa can short circuit a panic between 4 time zones; client in Bangkok, head office in England, me in Houston and our man in Denver.

Thanks for all the contributions!

Good to hear you got it sorted.
