I am aiming to go to Vientiane next week to apply for the DTV. Their site for booking appointments doesn't seem to let you book anything (thaivisavientiane.com); I hope this doesn't mean that the slots are all booked until the end of the year. Would be good to know if anyone else has any insight.

Hello. Great service. Thanks. I have an OA visa from my home country. I will be re-entering Thailand about 7 days before expiration. I wanted to confirm that with a new 12 month health insurance certificate they will extend the visa by 12 months at the airport as I re-enter? 

Appreciate the help.

I have a question about the dtv visa. Does the visa allow you to be in Thailand 6 months of the year only or does it allow you to be in Thailand 6 months at a time? In other words when your 6 months is up you leave Thailand for a short period and come back for an another 6 months?

ORIGINAL POSTER

Feeling nervous. Applied for a two week tourist eVisa 11 days ago. Return tickets already purchased (as required prior to visa application). Due to fly Sunday morning. But the application is still pending. Does the immigration give approvals on weekends? Or am I better off trying to reschedule my flights?
