Popular Post anchadian Posted June 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 26, 2021 (edited) The online booking form for Immigration in #Bangkok will be down for the foreseeable future while they improve the system. This follows the data breach I reported ten days ago. It should be fixed before 19 July, when it becomes compulsory to book online for more services. https://twitter.com/RichardBarrow/status/1408602636354342913 Edited June 26, 2021 by anchadian 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_je Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 I found out it was down when I tried to change my original booking (Non OA retirement extension) to this coming Monday. I can still just do walk-in on Monday, right? Or would that be taking a chance on a long wait since I would not know how many slots had already been booked on Monday?

You will be able to walk in. Having said that Monday can be a busy day. I would go mid week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the intention is only to harden the system against security breaches, it ought to be possible to cure the problem without bringing the system down at all. If, however, the database is totally corrupted, and they need to manually reenter all the data, then it is unpredictable how long the whole process will take. That may depend on the number of officials who can be assigned to the task of manually entering the data. The utter incompetence of the people involved in Immigration IT is mind blowing. To adapt, translate and implement one of the well tested international booking systems should take around two weeks. Only Thai Immigration could manage to go live with an insecure system that subsequently requires time consuming and expensive remediation. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Their website (https://bangkokimmigration.com/) is also down and gives a 404 error for page not found. Maybe they are combining the two sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which, in turn, could result in a state of chaos at CW/MTT if officials have to be redeployed to this task in significant numbers from processing extension of stay applications, 90-day reports (including the timely issue of mailed-in report notifications which is already a problematical issue at that particular office on the basis of countless recent reports on here), etc. Edited June 26, 2021 by OJAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
