I've applied last Monday for DTV (Soft Power) at Vientiane, Laos.

Paid the fee on Tuesday. On the same day the asked me to send screenshots of my online banking confirming the amount.

Thursday the application went to "Pending Approval" and today I got the approval email.

Overall 5 working days (since there was a public holiday last week).
