ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The Thai embassy in Laos requires applicants to certify their bank statements at the embassy. It's important to visit the embassy in person for this process and to ask for an interview appointment. Processing time for visas is generally a minimum of two weeks, and applicants must remain in Laos while their visa is being processed. Traveling to Thailand during this period could lead to visa denial.
