SAFETY FIRST

Reading the headline, I thought it was one of those naughty Russian women.

Sounds like a good idea but every year you'll be making twice as many trips to immigration.

I often thought it was a scam, now I'm sure it was because I've spoken to many Aussies about the passport photo issues. Such a shame, it's a huge inconvenience to retake photos. Great news about completing the passport process through the mail. 👍

Over the years I've had to go to the Embassy in Bangkok for me and my families passports. Sadly I've always had to retake passport photos. Did they approve passport photos when posting? I've always had to retake mine, they would send me to the photo shop next to the old embassy.

I rarely go back to Oz, only when I need a visa for a country I'll be working in. I can't remember, around 2010, think it was, I went back to Oz, needed a visa and medical to work in Saudi Arabia. I had one of the first issued chipped passports, didn't even join the queue, scanned my passport and went straight through electronic gates. It was a little strange being the only person using the electronic gate.

I saw you in Tony's outdoor gym 3rd road, looking good 👍 I see you have a new mankini. Make sure you don't mingle, once you start your story telling you'll bore them to tears.

Apparently the OP was a little confused, his passport is good for travel.

Mate, yesterday the wife was at work, the kids are home, Manly is playing Parramatta, NRL. I haven't got time to read every comment, I read the OP, then generally glace over some comment written and make comment. Anyway, I find most comments on AN threads are members bickering.

I get PEA messages each month on all my electricity bills from my Line account. Then I go to the APP and pay, easy and safe.

I'm always petrified, scared stiff of those elderly, obese, shirtless foreigners pacing along Jomtien Beach road each morning. TERRIFYING

I don't believe. Double check please, I'm sure it was one of those nutjob foreigners we've been reading about lately. I read yesterday on a local forum that there was a foreigner in the same area begging for money and food, he had no money. Maybe this crazy Thai guy was looking for him.

Agree, but if they don't understand they should ask for more information not just send a stupid emoji. I feel that the confused emoji's should be banned. I can understand a confused emoji then a comment but just a confused emoji without comment is antagonising. I reckon I'd still just be an advanced member but with all the unnecessary confused emoji's I receive over the years they've shot me up to Platinum, approaching Ruby.

Blah, blah, blah. https://aseannow.com/topic/1322958-it’s-time-to-get-sober/#comment-18783900

You'll find that they will use those pages in the future. I'm an Australian, we were issued 64 page passports (sadly, not any more). I work offshore, I'd fill my passports up in a few years, the IO would always flick through the pages to find a spot for his stamp. The concurrent passports I had issued were smaller with 3 years validity. What's your concern, are you filling up your passport quickly? Apply for a concurrent passport.

Keep up the good work mate, too many scumbag, deadbeat foreigners in Thailand. The worse thing about Thailand is some of the foreigners.

Nothing worse than a drunken, alcoholic doctor. 😂

It's you, It's your alcohol addiction. I posted this on your previous posting 'time to get sober' Alcohol is a depressant, which can disrupt the balance of neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) in your brain and affect your feelings, thoughts and behaviour. You will be arguing with everyone.

Why does this not surprise me.

OK, noted.

I did not reply to you, why are thinking my emoji comment was directed at you? Are we all expected to read every comment on threads that we comment on.

Seems weird that I got a confused emoji on my above comment. I'm confused why I got a confused emoji. The OP says 'have to renew my passport: does the renewal at my Embassy'

OK, thanks. I read the OP, asking for information regarding passport renewal.

If he obtains a new passport this passport will have a new passport number. Should purchase fight ticket after new passport issued.

To each their own. Came to mind, thought I'd throw it out there.

Might be worthwhile putting your expired passport through the washing machine to remove any history regarding visas etc.
