Indian traveling to Thailand with residence in Europe

Accepted answer

The "special rule" may be referring to the fact that a resident of a country can apply at a Thai Embassy, official Consulate, or possibly an honorary consulate in the country of their residence. You do not have to travel or send passport back to India and visit Thai Embassy there.

I would recommend getting a minimum SETV vs VoA. VoAs are only good for 14 days and cannot be extended at local immigration. And she cannot do a border hop "Out-In" in most cases. She would need to fly out and fly back in (Kuala Lumpur or maybe India) to do another VoA.

A SETV would give her 60 days + option to extend at local immigration office for 30 days.

It's "special" because normally certain countries must apply for visa in their home countries only (usually countries with high migrant risk and no easy deportation option). Not saying it's fair, but it seems most developed countries do this on some level.
