Popular Post mozambiq Posted January 16, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2016 I have just got back from Vientiane with my SETV this was my 3rd visit to the Thai consulate over the last 2 years and this time round the process has changed for the best less queuing. I arrived just after 8.30am waited in queue to hand over passport and application to the person sitting at the table who makes sure everything is in order if so you are given a number where as before they would hand out a number first and you would then have to wait for it to be called to give your passport/application and then wait again to pay for visa. I was done in 30 minutes no payment is required until the following day my number was 48. Day two this is the best no queuing up to wait for the gate to open and no people pushing in, front the gate opens at 1pm but they do not start calling out numbers till 1.30pm. Your number is the same from the previous day pay the 1000 THB and receive passport at the same time I had mine within 20 minutes so you could say maybe 55-60 passports are handed out in 30 minutes if there are no hold ups. I was at the border before 2.30pm. Hopefully this helps. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spambot Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Yup - Nice update. The numbering system is better and allows you to plan your next day. If you have No 576 (me) you can forget the about the early bus for next day for Udon - Hence you can make plans prior t the 1:30 am stampede that would occur the next day.

I guess you got there later? What is the best time to start lining up to get a low number? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next day, same. Go at 3pm and let it all die down. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
