jackoholly Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Hi all Does anyone know of any long queues with visa applications? I am planning on converting my visa very soon and am concerned about whether or not they are having troubles/back logs with applications. Any info is appreciated.

ubonjoe Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 There have been recent reports of long ques on Monday and Thursdays because those are the days visa run vans show up. But they still have been managing to get all the visas done by the next afternoon after applying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyLew Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I went two Wednesdays ago and it was not bad. totally applications was only in the 160 range When I picked up my passport on Thursday afternoon at 1.30pm people from that morning were still waiting to hand in their paperwork As mentioned going on a Monday or Thursday is awful and suggest you avoid these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackoholly Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 What about with visa run companies? I hear they're processed faster. Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Once you get your number the visa runners wait for the same amount of time as all others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Visa run companies run companies would not put you ahead, you arrive as a group, get number and wait wait and wait A way to avoid this is to get an agent outside the embassy to do the paperwork/hand it in and collect it for you, but it is gonna cost you more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackoholly Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Is there a way you can get the visa without actually having to leave Thailand? For example, taking your passport themselves to Laos?

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand No That would be illegal. You cannot get a visa while you are here in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
