The Consular Section of the American Embassy in Bangkok is pleased to

inform you of the addition of a last minute consular outreach visit to

Phuket and Udorn Thani. Please come if you can!

Consular staff will be available to provide consular services at the

following dates and locations:

Monday, September 29, 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Hilton Phuket Arcadia

Resort and Spa, at 333 Patah Road, Karon Beach, Phuket, Thailand, 83100,

telephone: 076-396-433.

The following consular services will be available during our outreach

visits:

* Passport renewal applications ($75.00 or Baht 2550 for adult

passports, and $85 or Baht 2890 for a child's passport)

* Notarial Services and Certified Copies ($30.00 or Baht 1020)

* Absentee ballot application and voting abroad information

* Social security, VA or other federal benefits question will be

limited, but we will try to provide forms and answers

(Please bring exact change!)

NOTE: We cannot process extra visa pages during our outreach trips. We

can accept applications, but the passports will have to be brought back

to the Embassy for final processing the next day. The passports will

then have to be picked up in person (or by a friend upon presentation of

a letter of authorization signed by the applicant) at the Embassy. We

regret any inconvenience caused by this change in procedure, and we are

still working on gaining authorization to begin mailing passports back

to applicants.

Additionally, Consular Reports of Birth cannot be processed during

consular outreach trips.

If you have any questions, please e-mail: [email protected] or call the

American Citizen Services Unit at: 02-205-4049.

We look forward to seeing you in Phuket on Monday, September 29

Sincerely,

American Citizen Services

Good news as I need to get a new passport made for my daughter. Amazing how a child passport is more than an adult and the validity isn't as long.
