I am planning a trip to India in mid October, and so have researched into the visa requirements. I'd be really grateful if anyone with previous experience could check that I've got everything correct. As I live outside of BKK, I'd hate to hit any hurdles when I make the trip down.
I understand I need to submit my application at this address, not the Indian embassy;
VFS (Thailand) Glas Haus Building, 15th Floor Sukhumvit 25 Road, BAngkok
On the day of application I will need a completed form, two passport photos, a copy of my work permit (although not sure this is required as I've been resident in Thailand for under 3 years), and the relevant visa fee plus non Thai national processing charge. No where does it mention I need copies of my passport photo page or Thai visa, can anyone advise on whether these will be necessary?
On the day I apply I simply turn up at the office between 9 and 12, and take a ticket, hand in these documents when it's my turn and then leave. Is it necessary to get there early because of long queues etc or can I get there by 9/10 and be seen easily?
Then five working days later (so the same day the following week) I have to return to counter two at 12 noon and hand in my passport and then pick it back up at 3pm that same day? Has anyone had problems with this process not being possible the following week if the application was accpeted on the first visit?
Also any information on people who have submitted applications on behalf of someone else, or does the application have to be made in person? I'm hoping to apply for a visa for myself and my friend, without her being present.
Thanks in advance for anyone who can help this process be a smooth one
