Anyone else been waiting for a long time in Hanoi. I was told many applicants got approvals within 5 〜8working days in Hanoi. But it seems it may take longer than that. The wait is killing me

Trying to complete the TDAC online form....

We arrive Monday so I assume I cannot complete until 72 hours before hence Friday afternoon..... The arrival data I guess is 'greyed out' until within this period?

Hi everyone. I have a serious problem. I have family in Thailand — my child and my partner. We’re not married, and I need to get parental rights through a Thai court, so we hired a lawyer. When my exemption stay ended, I left for Vietnam for 45 days and then flew back to DMK a few days ago.

What happened there was shocking. Many people were denied entry. I had all documents — a letter from my lawyer, invitation from my partner’s family, Thai bank statement, my child’s birth certificate — but they didn’t look at anything. They just said I “can’t enter for the third time,” took my passport, and put me in the detention room for the night. The conditions were terrible.

The main issue: they didn’t put any stamp in my passport. No denied entry, nothing. The next day, after returning to Vietnam, I applied for a tourist visa with all documents and clearly stated that I want to visit my family for the holidays. The next day I got a simple “your visa application has been rejected.” No explanation. Embassy and e-visa center won’t tell us anything.

Now I don’t know what to do. I’m planning to fly to Vientiane, try to enter by land, and if they refuse me again, I want to apply for a Non-O visa at the Thai embassy there. But I’ve already lost so much money that I’m afraid of another rejection.

If anyone has experience with this situation, please share advice. I just want to be with my family for Christmas. Thank you.

Hey. I’ve got a question. I’m going to Laos and I need to buy a visa. After that, about two weeks later, I want to cross into Thailand at the land border in Vientiane. From what I’ve read, Thailand has been refusing entry more often lately. My question is: if Thailand refuses to let me in, will I have to buy another Lao visa?

well after all the restless, sleepless nights stressed out about getting a bank account, I arrived in Thailand on the 2 ND December, immigration the next day very helpful people,explained it all for my extension of stay, the 4th of December got up early with a bit of nerves as it was bank account day, this could not have been easier, 2 bank accounts in about an hour, very easy, the hardest thing was getting my profile photo, and trying to sign my name the same twice, lol, anybody starting to go through the same just don't worry, have the right paperwork and visa and it's a doddle,

it is funny because the first time, i apply for a visa, i asked my Embassy in Canada wich visa to apply! they said a E-visa for the three months, i did that to not having the stuggle to go to immigration! I tought by going on certified channel like the Thai Embassy, i would have the good answer! I knew about the 2 moths and 1 month extexion, but i did not want to make a trip to the immigration! Anyway, a lot of you spoke to me like i was a fool or don't know anything about Thailand! That was my first post and my first entry with a visa! The last then years i came here for two months or lest! I also had remarks about my writing, and yes i speak French and try my best to have a comprehension way to post! Some people are very blessing and i don't know why, you have more experience then i do!!!
