TLDR : Answer Summary
The Thailand Pass approval time varies significantly, with reports ranging from as fast as a few minutes to a maximum of 48 hours. Many travelers have experienced turnaround times of 2 to 24 hours, especially since the removal of the hotel stay requirement. Applicants should ensure they submit their vaccination certificates correctly to avoid any delays.

Officially they're saying no longer than 48-hours but lots of reports of them being processed in 24-hours or less.

Since the requirement for a hotel stay has been dropped many people are reporting turn around times of a few hours. Some a few minutes, but probably best to plan for a day or so to be on the safe side.

Anywhere from 2 hours to 5 days
