How long does it usually take for the Thai consulate in Hong Kong to approve DTVs? Is it a relatively easy or difficult process compared with other Thai consulates in Asia?

Has anyone used the Thai Consulate in Hong Kong to have their DVT approved and if so how long did it take when I did research it stated must reside in HK I assume that having a valid visa and staying in a hotel would be okay

Anyone had recent experience with Hong Kong Thai Consulate? Also any hotels and highlights to fill in the down time? Edit - applying for my first non B visa

Has anybody got recent experience on getting single entry “Non B” from the consulate in Hong Kong.

Mainly if they require the WP 3 ??

I emailed them as I am preparing documents for a member of my staff and received a slightly conflicting/confusing reply

This was at the bottom of email after listed documents

In order to expedite visa issuance, your employer may, on your behalf, apply for the Work Permit in advance (with the form called Tor Thor 3). The Department of Employment will then issue a pre-approved certificate to be used in your visa application. In such case, please make sure to obtain the Work Permit (Tor Thor 2) once you arrive in Thailand.
