Hi, I need to get a 60-day tourist visa at the Thai Embassy in Lao. I know that I have to make an appointment, but I just would like to know that when I go for my appointment at the embassy will I get my 60 day tourist visa on the same day? How long do I have to wait to get the visa? Thanks

Just returned from the Thai Embassy in Laos to get a new 3 month Non-Imm O Visa based on raising my 1/2 Thai/ 1/2 English son, using the new appointment system they have started using. I am very happy to report everything went as smooth as possible, as opposed to the last time I went 5 months ago when I was app #380+ out of over 400 people there, this time I was #22 out of 200 app spaces, the Embassy was like a ghost town & there were only 3 other farang's milling about during my time there, I was out within 10 minutes & booked into my hotel by 10:30am, I really didn't know what to do with myself because I had so much spare time on hand. And for those worried about getting a printout of your confirmed appointment time, you need not worry any more, I tested the theory that they would accept a photo taken on your phone from the appointment web page & it worked just fine (I had the printout as a backup just in case ;-) )

Have to go to Laos to get a tourist 60-day visa.

Is it still working as before: application until 16:30, pickup next morning?

And the same address: rue Bourichane?

Thank you!
