ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi, Interview in Vientiane, the email says from 9:30 to 10:00.

Is that my slot? what happens if I go before? Maybe they let me in if there are few people or need to wait my time?

Also if it's very busy and can not enter at that time I need to go again the next day?

How it works? You go there and they give you like a number and call you?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The interview at the Thai Embassy in Vientiane is scheduled from 9:30 to 10:00 AM, which is indeed your time slot. It is advisable to arrive early, around 15 minutes before your appointment, to register at the counter in the tall building and receive a number card. If the embassy is busy and you cannot enter at that time, you may need to reschedule for another day.
