webfact Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Thailand’s Immigration Bureau is preparing for a surge in foreign arrivals over Chinese New Year, with particular attention being paid to the automatic biometrics kiosks at Suvarnabhumi Airport. On January 24, a breakdown in the immigration checking kiosks caused long queues at the airport, with extra immigration officers having to be drafted in to carry out manual checks. Nation Thailand reports that the bureau has pledged there will be no repeat of that scenario. Ittiphol Itthisarnronnchai, chief of the Immigration Bureau, says his office has been working with Airports of Thailand to ensure there is no further system breakdown.

ikke1959 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I am wondering in which aiports you have to show the boarding pass when entering the country. It must be done here in Thailand and not many people know that and have to find that thing...question is why because it is another not needed thing. All small handlings , fingerprints, picture, boarding pass, visa checking, stamping etyc make queues longer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
