The STV is something completely different from normal visas. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like anyone can get one at any embassy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t take his investment advice, that probably really was a ladyboy, and don’t ring that bell !!!... ------ There is no such list. Anyone of any nationality who meets the entry and visa requirements can obtain a CoE from the Thai Embassy in their country or country they are currently in.

A requirement of the STV is that applicant must be from "low risk country". I have not seen that quantified in any way. However it would mean many countries would not be considered. UK, USA and MANY others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does “from” a low risk country mean you have to be a citizen of that country? What if you are a non-citizen living there or happen to be travelling there. Can you still apply (for example US citizen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No But to apply for the visa at many embassies requires you to be citizen or legal resident of the country to apply for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a fun new development as of a couple of days ago the Thai Embassy in the US has new instructions on how to obtain a COE with a new TR (turist) visa. Not the STV just a TR. They also updated their site and removed the language that said TR were prohibited from entering Thailand.

Right, and that raises the issue that you must be in a country that actually has a Thai embassy... And while that most seem like most countries, it's a minority of the world's countries. (There are just 65 Embassies of Thailand) I'm chilling in a lovely country right now with no Thai Embassy. And since the neighboring country --- which does have an embassy -- is locked down ... well ... there effectively is a "list" of countries that can get to Thailand.

If there is no Thai embassy or official consulate in the country where you are staying you would have to apply at the designated embassy for that country. Due to the current situation they will do everything by mail or courier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
