My wifes Thai passport expires in March 2008

We are going to Thailand on the 30th November and returning to Uk on 15th January.

( she has an ILR )

What should we do about a new Thai passport ?

can we:

Get a new one in the UK before we go ?

Get a new one in Bangkok while we are there

or should we get a new one from the Thai embassy in UK when we get back in January ?

Whats best ?

To be honest you can do any of your options

If you apply in UK they quote 6 weeks but my experience is 4 weeks

If you apply at passport office in Thailand you can collect it in 3 days

If you apply at a passport office in Thailand and have it returned to your Thai address by courier it will take about a week.

Wherever you apply she will have to go in person, if London she will need an appointment.

If she gets a new passport before she returns to UK she simply carries the old and new passport to prove she has permission to enter UK with the ILR.

Edit: It is B1073 Baht + courier fees (if used) in Thailand

and ยฃ25 in UK + special delivery charges (if required)
