Can I submit a Thai visa application across the border?

In order to better handle business, many countries have opened embassies and consulates in various places, and the number is relatively large, and different consular areas are divided according to the location of the establishment. However, some countries only set up embassies in Beijing and do not have consular areas. Division requirements, but for Thailand, embassies and consulates in different locations have been set up and consular areas have been divided. Can Thailand visa applications be submitted across consular areas?

The Thai Embassy has nine embassies and consulates in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Kunming, Chengdu, Nanning, Xi'an, Xiamen and Qingdao, which are divided into nine consular areas according to the location of the establishment. Applicants must submit their passports according to the consular area where they are issued, or they can submit applications across consular areas, and they need to provide an additional valid residence certificate.

Due to different consular areas, the addresses of embassies and consulates that can submit materials are also different. Applicants must first know which consular area they belong to, and then submit materials according to the embassy location and office hours of the consular area. Moreover, due to different embassies and consulates, the processing process, signing time and expenses may also be different.

For example, the Beijing embassy has opened an electronic visa. Applicants must fill in the form online, upload the electronic document for confirmation, and then submit the paper material to the embassy to pay the visa fee. Other consular areas have not opened an electronic visa. Thailand's visa processing process is still the same as before. Therefore, applicants are advised to understand clearly before applying.

Generally speaking, the Thai embassy has divided nine consular areas. The requirements for consular areas are relatively strict, but they can also be submitted across consular areas. Only residence certificates are required. If they cannot be provided, they cannot apply in the consular areas.
