What should I do if my Thai visa application is pending for over a month and I need to leave soon?
It has been over 1 month today I have been sitting in "pending approved" at thai Canberra Australia office.
I have emailed them with no response and it says last update was 29th of June...
What do I do?
I leave the country in 2 weeks for Indonesia if they want me to come into a interview I wont be able to

Max Fredriksson I'm afraid that's not true. In Laos (Vientiane) they request interviews all the time, it appears.

In saying that it’s not advisable to travel until it’s approved ( mine was approved in Indonesia from Sydney consulate)
But I accept the same risk
