Answer summary
The processing time for a 60-day tourist visa from the Thai embassy in London can vary widely among applicants. Many responses indicate a range of waiting times from as short as 4 days to as long as 21 days. Several comments mention delays possibly due to holidays affecting working days, and individual experiences vary significantly with some applicants waiting over a month. It's recommended to check the application status through the embassy's website for up-to-date information.

The 13th and 16th were Thai holidays, so not as many working days as you think.

You just use the official website. Why would you use a company. If it’s a legit company they just upload your files. Why not upload them yourself, not difficult. Here is the link.

I’ve just got mine from London one too. I applied on 1st October and received it on the 14th. It is working days, so mine took 9 working days.

Even though I was panicky as I go in 2 weeks for 31 days, (booked it before they changed the rules from 60 down to 30 days I would say don’t panic 😊.

Hope that helps.
