trader1 Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Can I send my passport and application to a friend who lives in my home country and ask him to resend it to the embassy there? He can then post it back to me once he gets it back...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 This had come up a couple of time recently, try a search In a nutshell, you CANNOT send your passport from Thailand to get another Thai visa, any such visa may be spotted by the immigration officer and cancelled. You CAN however send your passport from, say, Malaysia to get another Thai visa (via an address in your home country). In fact even doing this is technically illegal as you are supposed to be within the jurisdiction of the consulate issuing the visa but you're unlikely to get found out. Do remember that doing this will leave you in a foreign country without your passport which may contravene the laws of said country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have time to get a second passport at your embassy in Japan and post that off. I would guess that would be the legal way to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
