Answer summary
The processing time for a Non-O visa in Thailand can vary significantly depending on the embassy or consulate. Based on experiences shared by users, the processing times range from as quick as 2 days to about 45 days if additional documents are requested. Specifically, users noted receiving their visas within 10 to 14 working days from the London embassy, 11 days from Chicago, and 2 weeks from Los Angeles. It's important to ensure accurate application details to avoid delays.

I applied for mine in Australia about 45 days before I left.
I got my first response back in about 8 days asking for more documents which was they wanted a copy of my drivers licence which I thought was a bit weird but anyway sent that to them as requested.
I got my visa approval notification by email about two weeks before my departure date to Thailand.

I'm a bit wary about doing the visa on my phone ! I checked everything 3 times all good ! Then I made the £150 payment then it flashed up "money not received ! Resubmit funds!" So I went into my banking app and it had been taken out by the App ! I contacted the visa by email and on Facebook as my vusa was declined due to my name being mispelt ! My name was spelt

the OCR used by the system is notoriously bad, you need to check everything yourself before submitting. You will need to apply and pay again, it won't be corrected.Kevin *******
@John *********
I'm not paying again ! 😑John **********
@Kevin ******
good luck."All payments are non-refundable, therefore please double check all information and especially spelling of names, e-mails and passport numbers since the Embassy would not be able to edit once you have made payments"

I've responded to this ! I believe there was a glitch in the system also maybe they've site gas been compromised ! I had a message to say funds weren't received twice so I checked my bank app money had been delivered although pending ! I checked everything at least 4 times! Easiest thing to do was put my name in correctly !John **********
@Kevin ******
that would be extremely unusual. I've never heard of anyone providing bad biodata being able to correct it. It would be interesting to see the outcomeKevin *******
@John *********
will see ! They sent me an email to correct it which I've done !John **********
@Kevin ******

If it's the embassy in Vientiane it is really fast. Did mine last month. Submitted on the Sunday, made payment on Monday morning and approved on Tuesday morning. Great service 😁
Kevin *******
BronzeHeron9618 on a Sunday? It didn't open on Sundays when I went last December ! I was hoping to do it again this year as I love the beer ! 🍺
BronzeH********
Kevin Dunne it's not open on Sunday but I mean I arrived into Laos on a Sunday. Which meant I had the Laos visa stamp in my passport. I uploaded that final bit of evidence they want to see to show I was actually in Laos then submitted the entire application. Then went and paid as soon as they opened on Monday morning I think it was 9am. Woke up on Tuesday morning to an email saying visa approved.
Chris *******
BronzeHeron9618 did the same but didn’t receive my approval email until first thing Wednesday morning.

Kevin *******
I'm having trouble with mine apparently the name I've used for the last 70 years is spelt wrong ! Lol
Kevin *******
Mine said 3 to 10 days
Graeme ******
If you have applied through the London embassy then the website will suggest 14 working days but many have managed to get the visa much earlier so it just depends how busy they are and if you manage to give them all the correct information on application
Steve *******
Which Embassy/Consulate? Which O visa?
Outis ********
It depends on the embassy / consulate
Phil ******
Its on your embassy's website

Applied at which embassy? No one can even begin to answer your question without that bare minimum of information.
Which type of non-O visa could help as well.
