TLDR : Answer Summary

Once the Vietnam visa system goes online in October, it is expected that applicants will primarily need to use the online platform, eliminating the option to apply in person at the embassy. This shift aims to enhance safety by reducing foot traffic at embassies, following the trend of e-visa implementations observed in other countries.

Henrik *****

One of the main reasons for e-visa is to make the Embassy safer, by limiting the numbers of people visiting the Embassy.

I would bet dollars to durian it will NOT.

At this time there is no thai consulate on the eVisa system that allows you to go to that consulate and apply for visas in person

You will make a log in, upload the documents, pay for the visa, then wait for either a request for more documentation, an approval or a rejection

AND

You will lose the application fee if it's rejected 🙁
