How long on arrival at immigration at BKK Airport does it take for 1st time Non-O visa processing...any ideas?
Answer summary
When arriving at BKK Airport for the first time on a Non-O visa, the actual processing at the immigration desk typically takes about 1 to 2 minutes once you reach the officer. However, the time spent waiting in line can vary significantly depending on how busy the airport is at the time of your arrival, ranging from 10 minutes to over an hour. Remember to print out your visa and also fill out the TDAC form before approaching the desk.

There is no processing. You get in line with everyone else who is entering on whatever visa or exempt. They look at your passport and printed out non o and stamp you in. Usually about 1 to 2 minutes in front of the immigration officer. The line getting to the immigration officer can be 10 minutes to over an hour, depending on how many flights are arriving when you do

Moments once you reach the immigration desk. How long it takes to get to the desk will vary by how busy it is. Print out your visa and hand it over with your passport
