ATTENTION MEMBERS:
The Thai consulate in Vientiane is going to an online appointment system starting Feb 1st. (it goes live on Jan 30th)
It is NOT like the one currently running at the thai consulate in Singapore (which has been running for over a year) where you submit documentation and get "pre-approval".
It is ONLY an appointment booking system in Vientiane
BUT
it appears they will NOT accept walk up service once this system comes online;
