I would like to make an enquiry on behalf of a friend of mine who does not currently have access to the internet .
He has a US Passport and has lived in India for long periods over the last 30 years but travels to Bangkok frequently . He has been able to obtain visas - originally for 5 years and more latterly for 6 months - to enable him to enter India freely from Thailand freely whenever needed .
He was recently told that the maximum visa validity he could obtain in Bangkok is now only 3 months . However your website suggests that a tourist visa for 6 months is available providing the correct documentation is presented .
Could you be very kind and confirm this for me ? And / or confirm the regulations more generally?
