I'm about to apply for Non-B visa at the embassy in Hanoi, Vietnam next week. Does anyone know how long the process can take if all the docs are prepared? Roughly, how long do I have to wait for the appointment and how long the process takes for the officers?

Thank you in advance for any info.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The process for applying for a Non-B visa at the Thai embassy in Hanoi is relatively quick if all documents are prepared. Based on previous experiences shared by others, applicants have reported that there is typically no queue at the embassy, with some managing to complete their application within one day. For example, one individual mentioned dropping off documents in the morning and picking up the visa two days later after 3 PM, taking less than 15 minutes in both instances. It's essential to have all necessary documentation, including flight details and bank statements, ready to avoid any delays.

Make sure you have your flight details for your bangkok flight. Someone was turned away because they didn't know their flight number.

No queue at all. My wife did this 2 weeks ago, we went in 11:15 and got out by 11:30 and was asked to come back the next day.

I got an ED visa in Hanoi from the Thai Consulate ( around the corner from the embassy) last month. Very straightforward no queues. Drop off documents before midday pick up visa the next day after 3pm. Providing all documentation is in order in and out both days under 15 minutes
