My girlfriends thai passport expired in Sept. of 2007....We are planning a trip to Bali and need to get her a new passpot. I live in Pattaya and was wondering what is the process and where can I go to get this done.

Thanks

Eric

B1 of Central on Bang Na Trat and about 1 hour and 1,000 baht. Very quick.

For a couple of baht they can send the passport to your home address (if you don't want to wait).

AussieFarang is correct, Central Bangna, very easy and efficient, have done several there for my wife and children.

Concur on Bangna. Get there, take a number, then wait your turn.

Thanks for all your help on this. Is this Central Dept store in BKK...I am going up there next week and will be staying on Suk 24...next to the BTS.....Is the Bagna passport office the easiest one for me to get to or would there be another office closer to where I am staying(next to emporium)

Thanks

The central in Bangna is on the right where the toll road ends coming in from Pattaya. You could stop there on the way in from Pattaya. I have even had the Bus stop there when I had business in the area.

The one in Laski would be farther than Bangna from where you will be staying.

There is one also at Pinkhlao.

Tel. 02-446-8111

I do not know Bangkok very well because I avoid going there unless there is no other choice.
