Quick question please: Is crowd volume at Chaeng Wattana still high as usual? I'm asking because my employer needs to take an employee there for a work visa, and we're trying to figure out if we need to go line up at 5 like usual, or if the crowd has lightened up significantly because of COVID and travel restrictions. Thanks in advance.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The current crowd volume at Chaeng Wattana appears to be significantly lower than usual due to the effects of COVID-19 and travel restrictions. Recent experiences shared by visitors indicate that wait times for visa services have improved, with reports of quick processing times, even during peak hours.

Monday morning (which is, supposedly, the worst) a couple of weeks ago. Fairly quiet.

I did my children’s visa and was out in 40 minutes - absolutely shocking because we expected the whole morning

I was there yesterday for 90 day report. Arrived around 9.30, left about 10.45, but 90-day reports move very quickly. However, not a great many people there.
