my lady needs a thai passport, i heard it is possible to make it in surat. what office should i be looking for? also, do they give it straight away? and what documents are needed?

any help is greatly apreciated.

An old ph # is 077 274 942-3, not sure if it still works and supposedly it's near the Wang Tai hotel.

As of 5 years ago, the closest place was Songkla.

You make the application and then they will mail the passport.

Not Songkla but Hat Yai and there's a passport office now in Surat Thani. I even had the correct ph #.

thanks a lot!

The building is on the Tapee river. Coming from Tesco direction on the main road into town, go past the Wang Tai hotel (LHS) and over the bridge, turn left at the next set of lights (between the TAT, DBD and PTT) onto the river drive. It's the 2nd or 3rd building on the RHS, just before the Harbour Master Dept. There is a big satellite dish next to entry gate.

If you are heading along the river from town (from direction of Bandon Pier) go past the municipal market (LHS) and Fire Station (RHS) and it is at the end of the river drive just before the road bends to left. Statues and other stuff on the river.

My lady made her passport last Dec. - took a couple of days. Needed her ID card and Tabian Baan.

i couldn't have asked for better instructions, Yotspeed, thanks a lot! i know the Wang Thai Hotel very well, so i should get there with easily.

cheers!

is there still a place to do new passports hadyai?? Or is the nearest only in Songkhla?? If in Hadyai, anyone has an address or a phone number?? Thanks in advance...!
