Processing time for B visa in Laos?

Does anyone know how long it takes to process a Non-Immigrant B Visa request at the Thai Embassy in Vientiane? The embassy website says two days, but I have read many reports of people getting them the next day.

Can anyone who has been there recently comment?

Thanks.

It's many years since I got my non-imm B in Vientiane, but when I did you turned it in in the morning and got it back the afternoon of the next day. I don't know if that is still the case, but I suspect that it is.

^ Still basically the same....two week days basically....put it one morning and pick up the following (unless you put it in on a Friday).

Okay. I had taken "two working days" to mean that you picked it up on the third day. Thanks for the posts.

No, not three working days...two. So put in one morning, pick up the following afternoon and then depart.

Re: Processing time for B visa in Laos?

You put you application in before 11.30 in the morning and you pick it up between 12.30-3pm the next day. Best days to go are mid week. Never a queueu on tuesday or Wednesday.don't forget to check for the Thai holidays as Embassey will be closed and to photocopy the visa bit of your passport and have 2 photoes ready.
