KOZMO Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 You are supposed to carry your passport at all times. Why not let every cop ask for it every time they see a falang? That would be a fast way to clear out the DIRT !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might be one person's collection of passports put together. Some people do have more than one nationality, you know, like many Aussie MP's. You mean all the fake ones together with the real one. Could be that the two piles of UK passports are criminal gangs banded together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it could be alternative nationalities of the same person, or old and new passports, or fake ones as you say. But no knowing doesn't stop the bar stoolers' comments. Not sure those Aussie MP's have fake ones, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwardflory Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 You do NOT have to carry your PP at all times. You can carry a copy , mine is wallet size, laminated with a copy of my ladies ID on the reverse side. If stopped, and required to show your ORIGINAL PP, you are supposed to be given a reasonable amount of time ( usually 4 to 8 hours ) to present the ORIGINAL PP to the 'authority' at their office. Her ID copy is on the reverse is so the police know who to contact if I am in accident and etc. BACKSTEP, I do not know if you are caught in a →raid← what will happen. Showing my 'copy' during HRM RAMA 9 viewing was accepted without any problems. Laminated copy can be done at almost any store that does copies.. mine done at Kodak store. She also has a copy like mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the amnesty was already done a few years ago, when the new rules went into effect. No excuse this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibreaker Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Well, how they will handle this at IDC is a mystery. It is not much more free space there, as far as I know. With the speed they round up people nowadays, they probably have an alternative location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazykopite Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Can never understand why people overstay for the sake of a couple of 1,000 baht they can have a visa of some description. There will however come a day when the government see a reduction in the economy for the more they kick out the less the income ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this. Maybe that. Tying oneself in a knot. The most probable reason you are desperately trying to avoid is that those passports belong to different Brits and just bundled together for easy access. Many Brits on serious overstay in this country. You will see as they ramp it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I spotted a Norwegian passport in the picture, same as mine. It's a shame that my countrymen can't follow the laws and just pay for a visa , they can afford it or just go home and live off the best welfare system in the world. Instead they choose to stay illegal in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the U.S. they've learned the hard way that amnesty ('86 and again in '94) sends entirely the wrong message, and just brings new illegals swarming in by the million, who now have the temerity to "demand their rights" (which would be, of course, to another amnesty...). Nope. Really bad idea. It's a gift that just keeps on giving... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
