Lost And Lost

[ThaiRich]

Hi all,

I have looked and looked and can not find the answer to my question. My question is this. I have lost my passport with my 30 day visa waiver I received at the airport. I can replace the passport easily at the embassy. What about the 30 day visa waiver. Will I have to go to immigrations and get a new visa waiver Or do they have a record of it and will give me a stamp for the remaining days?

Thanks for you help.

Now that does suck. I think many of the seasoned expats here can provide better advise on this issue than myself but I believe your visa entry is recorded on a computer. I'd get the passport straightened out then go to Thai immigration and explain your passport was lost and show them the new one. I believe they are now free so they should either check the computer or simply tell you it is okay. However, I'd try and get them to put something in there in case you are hassled somewhere else. Good luck. Don't lose too much sleep over it and enjoy yourself. Oh and bring your airline itinerary if you have to provide some type of proof, hotel receipt, etc.

You first step is to obtain a police report from where you lost the passport. Then obtain a new passport from your Embassy. Then visit immigration to stamp your new passport with the information on your arrival and permitted stay (free).
