Will my Thai visa be granted before my flight on 27 December after applying on 10 November?
Really Stressed 😥
I applied for a Thai Visa 30 days single entry yesterday 10 November from Canberra, Aus.
My flight ✈️ is on 27 December.
Do you think my visa will be granted before the flight..??

My visa arrived 3 days before we left and move to Thailand.
We applied for our child’s before we left Australia, and entered the child on visa exempt, we have just been sent her visa now.
Applied through Canberra.

I think you will be fine. But I suspect you applied for a 60 day visa, didn’t you?

The Embasseys and consulates really should offer a fast track service where you pay a bit more for a guaranteed turnaround time

anonymouslyany i went to Sydney as i applied from there, they said there is nothing they can do

Why stressed? You only applied yesterday. Just be patience. And in the worst case scenario you don’t get the visa on time, just get 30 day extension in Thailand.
