does anybody know how long after completing the Visa application through the Thai Visa website, you receive acceptance or rejection of your application? I just completed mine and the status shows " pending document check".
Answer summary
The time it takes to receive acceptance or rejection of a Thai visa application varies based on the applicant's location and the specific visa type. Responses from various commenters suggest that processing can take anywhere from 1 to 5 weeks, with many reporting an average timeframe of about 1 to 2 weeks. Factors affecting processing time include the country of application and potentially the travel dates submitted.
