Has anyone ever gone on an E-2 Visa run to Bangkok?
Or even been to the Korean embassy there?
Directions and other info would be appreciated. |

Been there, done that twice.
Drop-off hours are 1:30 - 3:30. Pick up hours are between 10:30 - 11:30 the next day, unless its a public-school position (ie no visa confirmation number) or a C4 visa. In that case, its not the next day, but the day after.
You can walk to the embassy from the MRT. The station you get off at is �Thailand Cultural Centre�, and you take **exit #3**. From the exit you take a right and walk straight to the intersection (about 3 minutes). On your left you will see Carrefour and Robinsons Dept store. At that awkward-looking intersection, take a right. It will seem like you are doing a U-turn. Just follow the road around as it snakes to the left. Your embassy will be on the left side of the road, and its about a 15-20 minute walk altogether from the station.
**exit #3** I may be mistaken here. What�s important is that you should be able to look right and see the two big department stores across the street. |
