Has anyone recently gone through the DTV visa process in Vientiane and can share how long it took to get called for the interview and receive the visa?

Any recent experiences, timelines, or tips would be super helpful!

If anyone has direct contacts at the embassy, I’d be incredibly grateful.

Thanks in advance! 🙏
