Applied Hanoi on soft power

2nd February applied and paid

4th February changed to pending approval

6th February emailed my approved visa

Dependent applied X2

6th February PM - after hours

9th February 3PM - requested more documents, my fault as sent a wrong page so sent correct documents straight away

9Th February 5PM - both approved

So overall was 5 working days for my visa and 1 working day for both dependent visas. Amazing service. Time to fly home 💕

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user shares their experience of applying for a soft power visa in Thailand. They applied on February 2nd, changed to pending approval on February 4th, and received their approval via email on February 6th. They also applied for two dependent visas, which were approved by February 9th after providing correct documents. The total processing time for the user's visa was 5 working days, and 1 working day for the dependents. They express satisfaction with the quick service.

Great that it was a quick and painless process. Would you mind sharing the soft power activity you applied on? And the school you went through. I'm assuming you just uploaded all the documents yourself?
