Has anyone recently gone through the DTV visa process in Vientiane and can share how long it took to get called for the interview and receive the visa?

Any recent experiences, timelines, or tips would be super helpful!

If anyone has direct contacts at the embassy, I’d be incredibly grateful.

Thanks in advance! 🙏

I know that now you have to apply for the visa online. But you still need to choose the embassy that will process your application. Do you think it matters which embassy you pick? The embassy in Hanoi has very bad reviews and many people complain they didn’t get their visa. Do you think it’s better to go to Vientiane?

I applied at the Vientiane embassy (workation), and the status changed to “Pending Approval” on Friday. Does this mean they will schedule an interview soon? Because I haven’t received any interview invitation by email yet

I’m going to apply for a Thai non-ed visa at the embassy in Vientiane. I’m aware of the new method of submitting documents online then paying in person. Does anyone have knowledge of how long this typically takes? Website says 5-10 days but I’m hoping maybe that’s a conservative estimate. If anyone has done this recently, please let me know how long it took

Hello everyone ,

I am in the situation where I did a mistake on my application for a Thai e visa ( non b visa ).

I have 2 options :

Option 1 : still going to ventiane to pay the fees and try to get the visa even if it might be denied/ rejected because of this mistake ( and loose then 200 e of flight tickets for nothing).

Option 2 : wait until the Thai e visa application online expires after 14 days for not paying the fees at the Ventiane embassy. Then do another Thai e visa application with no mistake. ( I'm just not sure, if they let you do another application after one that has expired )

Did any of these situations happened to anyone here and how did it go ?

Thanks a lot for your help🙌🏻 🙌🏻

Has anybody done the DTV visa for medical treatment?

I need to get some demtal implants.

It Takes about 6 months to complete the implant process.

Would one dental implant be enough to get the DTV Visa or do I need to make the treatment longer? Already had consultation with the dentist and they are willing to write a letter and treatment plan.

Thanks.

Also, after reading that new article about the delays, right now, where is the best place to apply for DTV visa?

I saw somebody just got it in Vientiane, Laos, 2 business working days but then I saw someone 3 weeks.

I submitted my application on Monday in Vientianne and had 2 requests for further documents (passport picture and financial evidecne. I uploaded those and yesterday the status went to pending approval. But today I got 2 emails again asking for the same documents. But if I login to the E-visa website it doesn't show I have to upload the documents like last time. It's still showing pending approval with no way to upload any extra documents. Has anyone experienced the same?

Could anyone here provide me some clarity regarding the Thai evisa? I am working in Khon Kaen and have applied to get the Non-B visa in Vientiane. I have opted to pay at the Vientiene embassy.

The embassy advised that I wait between 10-15 working days for a decision, but someone who got the visa told me that they went to Vientiane shortly after submitting an online application and got the visa within 2 days via an agent.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

I want to apply for a Digital Nomad DTV Visa on 26th February at the Vientiane Embassy in Laos. My occupation is Business Owner, so I would like to know which documents I need to provide. I’ve noticed in this group that the embassy sometimes asks for additional documents, like a contract agreement or a work contract (B2B). Could you kindly clarify?
