Do I need to visit the Thai embassy again after getting my visa approval email?

I just had an interview for DTV in Vientiane thai embassy and were told I would get the visa approved by 2pm today.

Do I have to visit the embassy again once I get the approval email? Or would the immigration stamp my passport when I cross the border?

I'm planning on taking a bus back to Thailand at 4pm.

TLDR : Answer Summary
After your visa is approved via email, you do not need to visit the Thai embassy again. Just print out your e-visa and present it along with your passport at the border for immigration stamping. Make sure to complete the TDAC arrival process when entering Thailand.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be agents.co.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

Only book your transportation once you have your visa in hand, never before

Your visa will be in the email as a PDF go to a printer and print it out and hand it to the officer with your passport when you cross into Thailand. Don't forget to do the TDAC arrival and check your permission to stay stamp.

No need to visit again yo embassy. Just take a printout of your evisa and got the stamp of 180 days while entering in thai
