bbi1 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 (edited) Both myself and my Lao partner need to apply for a Thai police certificate for a visa to my country. 1. Is it possible to get this done online for a Non-Thai person or do we need to go to the Police Headquarters in BKK to get this done? It's a big of a pain needs to be done in person. 2. Can anyone who's in Thailand apply for one, doesn't matter if you are here on a visa or are on a 30 day visa exempt? 3. If applying at the BKK headquarters, do you just need to bring your passport with you? 4. Do you need to provide a copy of all entry/exit stamps in your passport? 5. Has anyone recently done one and what what the rough turnaround time to get one? Is there a fast-track option to get it quickly?

carlyai Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Long time ago I got one. If you pay the fee you get the paperwork in a week or 2, but, if you pay 'special' at CIB you get the OK in an hour. :) Loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, thanks. As a foreigner, did you just produce your original passport & nothing else for them to do the check? On their website has everything written in Thai, even though it's linked from the English section of their website for "REQUIRED DOCUMENTS (Apply in person for applicant residing in Thailand)"here: https://pcscenter.sbpolice.go.th/news/REQUIREDDOCUMENTS(ApplyinpersonforapplicantresidinginThailand)_25.html Or are all foreigners meant to follow the instructions REQUIRED DOCUMENTS (Apply by Mail for applicant residing in abroad) here even if they are in Thailand: https://pcscenter.sbpolice.go.th/news/REQUIREDDOCUMENTS(ApplybyMailforapplicantresidinginabroad)_32.html Edited September 5, 2023 by bbi1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
