vientiane visa application policy

[webber4]

Hello,

 

can anyone please tell me how long before applying for a single entry tourist visa in Laos (Vientiane) i should book an appointment? or is it back these days to just showing on the spot at any given day?

 

thanks.

I just went to the Thai consulate website and looked at the online booking. It would appear you can make an appointment for more than a month in advance of when you're going there.

 

You just show up between the allotted time I think 9 and 11:00 on the day of your appointment and have your print out of the confirmation

 

You book the appointment here

Remember that consulate has a three business day processing time

 

meaning if you apply on Monday morning you get your passport back Wednesday afternoon

and

if you apply on Thursday you get your passport back the following Monday afternoon.

 

Also watch for any holiday closures.
