Paying Visa fees at embassy on day of interview. Bangkok, Thailand.

[Loren Y 2,732]

Still a few months ( OK, Many months probably) out from having to pay fees, but after some searching I found information at the embassy webpage for the embassy in Bangkok that you can pay the 265.00 Visa fees on the day of your interview at the Embassy cashier with a credit card. My fiancee currently has a credit card as I added her to one of my current cards with no foreign fees etc. Found this was easier than sending money, she just swipes the card for things she needs ( With prior approval of course LOL) and she has been very responsible with the card since she has had it ( About 3 months), plus since we already have a joint credit card together, might help with the interview for proof of relationship. I just want to make sure if anyone has been thru the embassy there and paid on the day of your interview? I know you can pay via a local bank, or I am sure I can pay the K1 fees like I did when we tried a year ago to get her a tourist visa via a EFT transfer to a virtual account number, but I would like to avoid all the headaches of that and just have her pay via credit card at the embassy cashier(and I get Amazon points as a bonus!). I just don't want her to get down there on the date of the interview and not be able to pay and have to reschedule the interview. Thanks a bunch in advance for any information you can throw my way, it is greatly appreciated. I couldn't figure out how to post this in the Thailand forums for some reason, so move this post if needed.

Have you looked at the instructions on the website?

 

RECEIPT OF APPLICATION FEE PAYMENT: Each fiancé(e) (K) visa applicant must pay the visa fee at any of the 700 designated branches of Krungsri Bank using the CGI Pay Instruction Sheet and Bay Bank Deposit Slip from your GSS profile. Krungsri Bank cannot accept your visa fee payment without both of these documents. The CGI slip states your visa fee amount in Thai baht (equal to USD 265). Mail the original with your packet, but retain a copy for your files.

 

You must pay ahead and submit the receipt

Your right I looked at the Packet for Immigrant visas, not the K1. I downloaded the Packet 4 information for immigrant visas not the K1 visa, and that is where the information was about payment at the embassy. My bad, should have checked a Little deeper. Thanks again. Looks like I'm sending money.
