URGENT HELP NEEDED FOR VISA APPLICATION IN BKK

Hi there,

I am trying to download the forms for the application, and I can't get it to work....

Here is the website...

http://www.indianembassy.in.th/tourist_visa.php

It says I need a reference form, which I had no problem downloading.

When I click on the visa application form however, I get this message...


'+You are not authorized to view this page+

The Web server you are attempting to reach has a list of IP addresses that are not allowed to access the Web site, and the IP address of your browsing computer is on this list.
Please try the following:

Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 403.
+Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled About Security, Limiting Access by IP Address, IP Address Access Restrictions, and About Custom Error Messages'

Please help me. So frustrating! I have tried from many different computers.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Can you kindly inform us as to what kind of visa you are applying for? Its not necessary for a tourist visa to my knowledge..

Tourist visa is what I'm applying for.

Ok cool, that's what I want to hear. I'm going to just turn up and see how it goes.

Your thai officials cannot contest this form-it is from the official indain gvt portal and uniform all over the world

Ok thanks guys.

Basically the link to the Thai one is down, and has been for a while by the sound of things.
You can do it there for about 125 Thai Baht. In retrospect if I had seen the above post I would have tried that form.
The passport photos need to be square - I think it's 3.5 x 3.5cm.
You can get them on the ground floor entrance - to the right when you first walk in at a self service photo booth. Costs 120 baht. They'll charge you 250 upstairs.
When you put your money in, two rectangular buttons will light up - hit the right hand one twice.

To get to the embassy from Ko San area, take the orange flag river boat from phra Athit , get off at the main stop - sathorn - costs 15 baht.
Walk straight off the boat to the sky train, catch the train to Siam, change lines to the sukkhumvit line, get off at Asok.
Follow signs for MRT, when you get to the security entrance, exit to the street and turn left (east). Walk along, past the Indian embassy sign post (the visa app is not at the embassy).
The building is called glas hous I think. It's big and it has lots of glass!
Embassy on floor 15.

Get there early or wait for ages like I did.
As far as I can tell they are issuing 6 month double entries, and it takes anywhere between 6 and 10 days depending on your passport etc.

Will report back when I get it!

Hopefully this makes somebodys life easier!!!

Also the guy there said you need to fill everything in in black pen - not sure how strict they are on this, but it is India so best to be safe haha!!

Cheers!
