Which Thai embassy or consulate near Ho Chi Minh is the easiest for obtaining a tourist visa within a week?
Which nearby Thai embassy/consulate is easiest to get a tourist visa within a week? Does anyone have experience with the one in Ho Chi Minh?
Answer summary
The conversation discusses the ease of obtaining a Thai tourist visa from nearby diplomatic missions. Savannakhet, Laos is highlighted as accommodating walk-in applications with quick processing times, typically less than a week. In contrast, the Phnom Penh consulate is mentioned where using an agent can expedite the process, requiring proof of funds. These options are explored particularly for those near Ho Chi Minh City.

Depends on the country. If you lived in Cambodia, you'd use an agent for your visa extension. Everyone does. In Laos, this is also largely true (except for tourist visa extensions, which are generally done in person at the immigration office).Richard *********

Savannakhet Laos accepts walkins without an appointment and you'll get your visa in much less than a week. Check the embassy or consulate website that you are interested in going to for their requirements and if they require an appointment.
