1 hr 15mins from start of queue to baggage carousel last week. It is what it is. Vietnam HCM is absolutely horrendous and was more than 2 hours. London took a non EU national 1 hour as well a few days ago.
My issue with Bangkok queueing though is it's relatively disorganized once the queue fans out at the end and you select a booth line to join.
honestly mate I don't think it's any quicker once you reach the officer. Still do fingers and face on the machine. Then stamp. Anyway, have a good trip mate 👍
