hi group!

anyone have a recent experience applying for the Tourist e-visa? My intended date of departure is end of this month and im seeing up to 15 business days turnaround on the embassy website. Search results on this topic are from back in November but say its usually much quicker.

Thx in advance!

The issue is less the visa and more ThaiPass. I recommend you get started as soon as possible.

I had to use NY because of my location and got approved in less then 3 hours.

What embassy would be your closest? Technically e-visa shouldn’t matter but I guess they have sway on turnaround times and the like.

It took me less than a week in January and that was with them coming back and asking for another document (DC Embassy)

ok I don’t have experience of that embassy but it seems extreme for a 15 day turnaround. Perhaps others who have used it recently can advise.
