TLDR : Answer Summary
Applying for a Tourist Visa at the Thai Embassy in Washington DC is generally considered straightforward. It's recommended to allow 3-4 weeks for the entire process, as it typically takes about 15 days for processing. If there are any issues, the embassy will contact you via email, so it's wise to factor in additional time for any potential delays.

Yeah same guy. I wasn't paying attention to the financial requirements of the marriage visa and I transferred funds late. As a consequence it would cost 30,000 baht, at a minimum to have an agent fix it. Or go to bali for 30,000 baht and do the marriage visa again.

I feel like I should invite you for dinner, you know my past like an old friend. However, I have not yet located my wife so you'll have to cook for yourself.

lol. I'm disappointed! I was just getting my best dress on. Well losing a wife can be seen as a good or a bad thing, I guess. Good luck with your visa search. Sure someone on here will come up with some good advice.

It's straightforward. Just give yourself 3-4 weeks. They usually take about 15 days to process and if there's an issue they'll email you, so add extra time for that.
