DIY from Thailand you have to submit and go collect it in Bangkok.

An agent does the travelling etc, you don't.

Yes, if you live a flight away from BKK makes sense to use and agent.

 

12K i think is very reasonable as the passport itself is £125 i think.

 

Agent also makes all the payments etc, too easy!

I renewed my UK passport last year, I think for the larger passport + courier fee it was £138 payable by CC.

I made an appointment Trendy building in Bangkok. So I had to travel to Bangkok for this with all the necessary documentation, photo copies of every page of my old passport, photos of myself, the filled in form.

They notified me when they had my new passport ready for collection. Luckily a very good friend had to go to Bangkok so I just gave him a note giving my consent to collect it.

It's everyone's personal choice, I have never used an agent but maybe I will need to one day.

Personally I would not wish to risk my old passport being lost by an agent, I have read that this has happened.
