Since when? I've gotten them at the Poipet border crossing and at the Koh Kong border crossing.

Which borders are you talking about and what makes you think they're not available?
Okay, I'll check now. Maybe I was confusing the eVisa options with the border crossings. No business VISA's using eVisa I do know from a couple days ago....

Just looked at canby, they indicate you are correct. However, I recall specifically in PoiPet being told they weren't available. Butt, I was told this by my tout if memory serves. We should be governed by your experiences and say they are available if you are there in person and do it yourself I guess. Other than PoiPet and Koh Kong, I have no knowledge. It's never really matter to me but I do recall at least once being led like a sheep to get fleeced. Paid the tout 1200.baht after he wanted 1500.baht for window service, limited waiting. The line was very long.

I've also been stuck in line returning to Thailand via PoiPet. I mean like a two hour wait to enter Thailand. This midday. I swore I'd never go that route again.

Yes, it's really annoying, but they're available.

They have even made me doubt myself, but I just had to remember that they are scam artists and will say ANYTHING to get you to buy the visa from them.
