TLDR : Answer Summary
The processing time for a Non-O eVisa submitted to Thailand can vary significantly. Based on comments from other applicants, the approval can take anywhere from 3 days to 10 days, with many receiving their visas within a week. For example, one user reported receiving their visa approval in 7 days, while another noted a 10-day wait that included additional information requests. Overall, it seems that complying with the visa requirements can also influence the speed of processing.

As a citizen you’re probably not among the cases with additional processing time.
