Frequently Asked Questions
Find the answers for the most frequently asked questions below
Do I still need to mail the document to the Consulate or come in person?
No. All visa applications must be submitted through the e-Visa portal (thaievisa.go.th). Please note that applicants are no longer required to mail anything to the Consulate and the Consulate does not accept walk-in or drop-off for the visa services at the moment.
What is e-Visa stickerless?
Currently, every visa can be requested through e-Visa portal except the Thailand Elite visa. After the e-Visa application has been approved, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to applicants. It is kindly requested to print a copy of the confirmation e-mail to present to airline and Thai Immigration officials to carry out checks when traveling to Thailand.
Visa information is incorrect, How to fix it?
Since the information in your application can not be revised or overridden manually even by the Consulate’s officer, if your information is incorrect you must reapply for a new visa and pay again. Please double-check your information before submitting for your own benefit.
What is the process of getting E-visa stickerless?
If the purpose is for vacation and will stay less than 30 days in Thailand, U.S. passport holders don’t need a visa. This is called “VISA EXEMPTION”. If you need a visa, you may apply for E-visa at thaievisa.go.th
Can one account apply for more than one application?
Yes! Travelers who plan to travel with their accompany (Family, Friend, or Coworker) may apply under one account on Thai E-visa portal. (i.e. One person can create an account and apply for each family member no need to create an account for each).However, a visa application is for each individual, please make sure that you complete the application for every traveler.
Can the visa be renewed?
Every visa has an expiration date and it is considered as applying for a new visa, not a renewal.
