What is the processing time for a Thai E visa application from Laos, and are there faster alternatives?
Has anyone gone through the process of applying for a visa via the Thai E visa system from Laos? Any info on the processing time or whether there's maybe a better way to do it these days? 10-15 days processing time seems a bit too long to be hanging around up there. Thanks in advance.
Answer summary
The inquiry is about applying for a Thai visa through the E visa system from Laos, with a focus on the processing time. One comment suggests that after payment, an interview may occur within 1-2 days, followed by visa issuance 2-3 days later, indicating a potentially shorter timeline than the initially expected 10-15 days.

Most reports I've seen from Vientiene say after you go to pay, you'll possibly be called for an interview within 1-2 days and then your visa will be issued 2-3 days after that.

Thank you for the reply. Do you know how long after you make the online application you are asked to go and pay? And is the interview something detailed and serious? No worries if you don't know. I appreciate the effort.Brandon ************

you don't have to wait any amount of time to go pay. You just have to go during the correct hours. I think the interview is mostly to make sure you're in Laos.Daniel **********
