astral Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 She will need the originals of Household Papers, ID card, Birth cert. No copies needed, as all will be scanned during the application process. The application is quite painless, and photos are done directly on to the computer at the office. Unless you want to go back for a second visit there is a desk where you can arrange for the passport to be sent by EMS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joy16 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Anybody know how much it costs? Sorry to drag up an old thread but this is what I found doing the search. 1,000 Baht and add 35 Baht if getting by post (EMS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunglikea Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) We were set to travel to BKK to renew my wife's passport when we were told there's a government office in the Big C centre 5 min away from us in Nakhon Sawan! In and out in 15 minutes, 1035 THB and it will be with us within 10 days (could possibly pick it up there instead of waiting for the post, didn't ask). 'Scattercash' eh, I could have saved the 35 baht!! Fantastic service and no need to go to BKK! Edited June 3, 2010 by hunglikea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
