Can I apply for a tourist visa in Penang and collect in the same day?
Answer summary
You cannot apply and collect a tourist visa from the Thai consulate in Penang on the same day. Applications must be submitted in the morning, and passports can be picked up the next afternoon. Make sure to have the required documents ready, including a copy of your passport, two passport photos, and onward flight confirmation.

Nope. Submit application 9:00 - 11:00 am first day. Pick up 14:00-16:00 pm the following day 150 MR. Copy of passport front page. Two passport photos. Onward flight confirmation required. If you can't provide any of those there's a very helpful chap outside Consulate who can provide them all - for a fee.
no agency can pick up the next morning anymore, it was possible till few months ago, new consulate chief changed the rules: pick up starts 2pm of the day after. for everybody.
For the onward ticket, is it okay if the ticket is past 60 days of the visa? Because i would be extending our stay for 30 days on top of the tourist visa.
