Hi. I applied for basic 60 day tourist e visa on 1st Oct 2025. Its 15 days later and still waiting om pending (1)..I've applied many times before and always took about 4 working days . I know we get exemption but I went for 60 days in June and July this year as well as Nov Dec last year so the immigration moaned at me for coming too many times and to get a thai wife. I actually got married to thai girl during that stay. In June. I only need 60 day tourist visa. I cannot contact the embassy in anyway phoning or emails and trying the fb messengers now. Which fb messenger is best for a reply? Thank you.

Applied on May 4

Sent additional documents on May 26

Los Angeles Consulate website says it takes 5 business days to process additional documents. Today is the end of the 5th business day and I haven't heard anything. I sent an email yesterday but no response. Any advice on what to do? My departure date is June 9

Hi guys . Thanks for adding me. I'm new here.

I applied for a thai tourist visa 3 weeks ago and I haven't gotten a response from the Thai embassy. My intended travel date is 28th of July 2025. I was contacted by the embassy through my agent that the photograph of my passport book needs to resent as the one I sent wasn't clear. I had to resend it alongside a copy of my passport which they accepted. That happened 5 days after submission.

They said it would take them 10 extra days to process it but I've been waiting for 3 weeks now and nothing yet. Could anything be wrong? Why could they be taking so long when in reality they only said it takes 5-10 working days. I'm so so nervous 😓 😟.

I did everything they asked for as a requirement, and I've been waiting but no answer yet.

I applied through an agent, and I'm Nigerian. I don't know why they haven't given me a response yet.

I submitted my DTV under Workcation on 30th April and still “Pending Approval”. As of now, the status still shows “Pending Approval.” Meanwhile, my friends, who applied on the same date, already received their Visa approvals on May 10th. I am beginning to wonder if there might be an issue or delay specific to my application that I may have overlooked. I would greatly appreciate any insights from others who may have experienced a similar situation, or any advice on what steps I could take next.

Applied online at Vietnam.

Submitted on 9 April. Asked for extra documents last week. Until today 24 April still asking for additional documents like every page of my passport and extra passport photo.

My entry stamp is only valid till 7 May. What happens if it is not approved by 7 May? Anyone got into this situation before?

Has anyone had delays when applying to Madrid for the DTV visa? I applied a month ago and have heard nothing from them.

I applied online a month ago and still no response. I assume this is because of the high season and processing takes longer. Has anyone experienced similar waiting times?
