Short answer
Only in defined cases. Minors, senior citizens and applicants who need physical assistance may bring one companion inside; otherwise companions wait outside. Nobody can attend the biometric or interview step in your place.
Why the rule works this way
Capacity inside the hall is limited and each applicant is verified individually against their passport, so entry is restricted to the applicant plus a genuine assistant.
For Thailand, appointments in India run through VFS Global under Royal Thai Embassy, with indicative processing of 5–10 working days. The rule above applies at every Indian centre serving this mission.

How we source this information
Fees, processing times and document lists are cross-checked against the official embassy / consulate website, the appointed VAC portal (VFS / BLS / TLScontact) and our internal case logs from real bookings completed in the last 90 days.
Compliance & our scope of service
Travel To Abroad is an independent travel assistance company. We are not a government body, embassy, consulate or an authorised VAC. All applications are submitted through the official channel of the destination country and every fee, decision and interview outcome rests solely with that authority.
We assist with slot booking, rescheduling, documentation review and supporting travel documents. We do not guarantee visa approval and we do not offer immigration or legal advice.
Important: Appointment availability, government fees and document requirements can change without notice. Always confirm the latest details on the official embassy / VAC website before travel. Nothing on this page constitutes legal, immigration or financial advice.
We provide assistance with official visa processes. We do not guarantee appointment availability or visa outcomes. Decisions rest solely with the relevant embassy, consulate, or authorised visa application centre.
