Hi, does anyone know if there is any of the close countries to make the 60 days tourist visa and pick up same day??
If not what are the times for leaving and collecting passport?
Thanks for your help.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus among users is that obtaining a 60-day tourist visa for Thailand on the same day is not possible from most neighboring countries. Laos is highlighted as a good option, where you can submit your application in the morning and collect the visa the next afternoon. Thai consulates do not typically offer same-day processing; most require submission in the morning and allow passport collection the following day after certain hours. The consulate in Savannakhet previously offered same-day service but has ceased this practice. For those considering other options, flying to Cambodia could grant a 30-day stay, which can be further extended in Thailand, but this does not provide a tourist visa.
AFAIK: only the thai consulate in Savannakhet USED to offer same day service but they stopped doing it more than 2 years ago. I don't think there are ANY in S/E Asia that offer same day service anymore.
