Immigration Bureau Provides Mobile Services on Khaosan Road

[webfact]

 

In line with the National Police's policy, Pol. Lt. Gen. Torasak Sukwimol, Commissioner of Immigration Bureau, and Pol. Lt. Gen. Surachet Hakpal, Deputy Commissioner, directed the Immigration Bureau to conduct voluntary activities under the "Royal Volunteer Spirit Bestowed 904 Projects."

 

On December 22, 2022, led by Pol. Lt. Gen. Itthipol Itthisarnrat, the Commissioner of Immigration Bureau, various high-ranking officers organized an event on Khaosan Road, a popular tourist area, reported Siam Rath.

 

 

 

Seventy immigration officers participated in the "We Do Good with Heart" initiative, providing essential services to both Thai and international travelers.

 

The Immigration Bureau's Inspection Division 1 facilitated a Mobile Service to enhance convenience for tourists in the Khaosan Road area and nearby locations.

 

 

 

The services included requests for tourist visas (TM.30 and TM.47), re-entry permits, notifications of stay exceeding 90 days, and accommodations according to TM.38.

 

Commissioner Itthipol emphasized that the primary objective of the event was to encourage close collaboration between immigration officers and the public.

 

 

 

Khaosan Road, a tourist hub, not only served the public but also acted as a surveillance measure to ensure the safety of both Thai and foreign visitors and prevent transnational criminal activities.

 

The event also served as an opportunity to promote various Immigration Bureau projects, such as the "e-Extension" system, allowing foreigners to apply for temporary stays electronically.

 

 

 

Additionally, foreign nationals could input their information through mobile devices and computers, confirming their identity with officers in less than three minutes.

 

After the activities concluded, thorough cleaning of service areas and surrounding spaces took place for the benefit of the community.

 

The Immigration Bureau wishes to inform the public about its ongoing efforts to monitor and combat various offenses. If anyone observes suspicious activities, they are encouraged to report them to the Immigration Bureau's Inspection Division at Building Chaloem Phra Kiat, Suan Mokut Ratchakan, 60th Anniversary Siam Makut Ratchakar, 904 Moo 6, Ban Mai, Pak Kret, Nonthaburi 11120, or contact the local immigration office or visit www.immigration.go.th.

 

The Immigration Bureau expresses its sincere gratitude for the public's cooperation.

Now that is a good move for folk.

A plus there for the immigration people.

A good idea, keep the trust, they almost always, after a bit, get cagey and water down what they can officially do on the spot because all farang deep down are criminals trying to break Siam.

Relax the sphincters, stamp the forms, convenient happiness for all.

Why not publish a telephone number for people to report the suspicious activity? They have an address and website but no telephone hotline?

[bristolgeoff]

It is a good idea a bus to do visa things to extend and a lot more.Will it be everywhere i just wonder.

[brianthainess]

Now if only they could do that on Koh Chang, instead of everybody having to take the ferry to Trat, and then drive to Laem Nob, we already have a sub office but only good for 90day reports, went last week for my Marriage extension and was packed with tourists doing extensions. 

[timendres]

All well and good, but not sure what the two guys surfing the bus bring to the equation...

 

[mokwit]

Should go to soi 11 - lots of people who need help with visas there.

[it is what it is]

 

that's a great idea, but will it return regularly?

 

i had a quick look at the e-extension website, it's a bit of a mess. too much colour and cartoons, why can't they design a simple, easy to navigate site such as the uk or canadian government sites?

[Chris Daley]

Did they find anyone?

[bob smith]

jesus what is this nonsense!

 

that road has gone down the tubes big time!

long gone are the days when you could walk down it naked and totally plastered.

Are you ten? but yes tis funny, It is actually spelt Ngop but pronounced NOB to the BOMK.

Not to be confused with Liam Gallagher who is a complete NOB. But with his attitude he would make a perfect Immigration officer.
