Chiang Mai Immigration Experience

[tabarin]

I went for the first time to the new building of immigration at the airport in Chiang Mai today. 

This time I came on purpose after the lunch break as the majority always wants to be early. I prepared my documents and money already for the tourist extension and could keep a check on my queue number via the new HappyQueue app by scanning the QR code (App is available for both Android and Apple in the app store). 

The area has developed a lot and in combination with the Queue App as you can also cross the road and find a Amazon cafe as well 7/11 at the gas station or just walk to Central Airport shopping mall. This makes it much more pleasant to wait in my opinion and I collected my passport just before 4:30PM. 

The only thing I did notice is that the layout inside the building is not really the brightest as the applications for tourist extensions are handled right behind the main door (TiT) as well that somehow the 100 THB was not stapled to the receipt but stacked on the others at the desk of the final IO.
