ORIGINAL POSTER
I applied at the Vientiane embassy (workation), and the status changed to “Pending Approval” on Friday. Does this mean they will schedule an interview soon? Because I haven’t received any interview invitation by email yet

TLDR : Answer Summary
The status 'Pending Approval' typically indicates that your application is being reviewed and an interview may be scheduled shortly, assuming your documents are in order. If additional information is needed, the embassy may contact you instead.

If the documents are all in order then they’ll most likely request you for an interview.

Otherwise they will ask for more information.

They requested an interview within two days for me, after submitting all the documents.
