I am a French national living in Thailand since several years.
My company, based in Singapore, needs me to apply for an Indian Employment Visa, as I will have to work in Indian waters, on a Japanese drill ship, on behalf of Oil & Natural Gas Corporation Limited, Mumbai region.
I currently hold a Thai NON-B Visa and a work permit, but only since just over one year, while the instructions found on your site specify a requirement of two years. I previously did hold visa/work permit continuously from 2005 to 2010, but I currently have a new work permit started in 2013.
My question is, do I really need to go to France to apply for the visa, or can it be processed in Bangkok
