Rooo Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 For British Nationals : Renewing a British Passport from Samui (To be read in conjunction with the guidance on theBritish Embassy website) 1. Download or complete online the appropriate formand guidance notes. 2. Send completed application(s) to the publishedaddress. 3. Track the above using the details on your postalreceipt. 4. Track payment details via your online bank. 5. Wait……… 6. Accept receipt of new passport around 28 dayslater. Notes: a) The photographer opposite the cinema in Tesco’sis one of many that are easy to find & know the specifications. DO NOT ALLOW ANY OF THE IMAGES TO BE “PHOTO-SHOPPED”as it is suspected of causing problems/delays in preparing some new passports. c) Re Multiple applications (ie from the samefamily); All passports arrive separately. If one doesn’t arrive within a few days of the remainder start chasingit immediately. d) The vast majority of passports issued locallysince the switch to Hong Kong have arrived within 28 days. The above isfactually correct @02 Apr 13…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooo Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 Suggested procedure when presenting a new passport @ Samui Immigration (Applies to anyone that has renewed their passport) 1. Be sure to formally cancel your old passport by cutting the corners off the front and rear covers, along with the photo page. 2. Present both passports and the receipt/supporting paperwork from the issuing authority* to the Immigration Officer. 3. The above should be all that is necessary however they have been known to seek further clarification (“Letter from the Embassy”). If this is the case you should email the Embassy with; - Copy of photo page of both passports; - Type of visa - Date of entry into the Kingdom (as per white card in Ppt) - Your Postal address. 4. On receipt of the above a letter can be prepared & sent/emailed to applicants from Bkk as needed. This may take a few days. 5. The above applies to everyone regardless of nationality. Paras 1 & 2 are particularly important as it significantly reduces the chances of being asked for further clarification. Notes for Brits: - The Issuing authority* for new British Passports is HMPO (HM Passport Office). - Retaining the delivery packaging may further assist @ para 2. - The email address to contact @ para 3 is:[email protected] - The letter is free of charge. The above has been written in the hope of reducing unnecessary inconvenience or overstay. I hope it proves useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooo Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 LETTER TO BRITISH COMMUNITY CHANGES TO BRITISH PASSPORT SERVICES IN THAILAND Her Majesty’s Passport Office is making important changes to the way it delivers British passports overseas. The goal is to ensure that all British nationals living overseas receive a consistent, trusted, secure and efficient service whilst keeping the costs as low as possible. In order to do that, on 10 December 2013, responsibility for handling passport applications in Thailand passed from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to Her Majesty’s Passport Office. Following on from this, from 26 March 2014, British nationals in Thailand will submit passport applications, in person by appointment only, to the UK Visa Application Centre. All the information needed to complete the passport application process, including address and contact details for the UK Visa Application Centre, will be available on GOV.UK at https://www.gov.uk/overseas-passports I know that this change will seem inconvenient, but the new measures being put in place support the wider public protection, helping to ensure that the risks of fraud and identity theft are minimised for those living and working overseas. If you need to travel urgently but your passport is not available, you should still contact the nearest Consular Assistance team at the British Embassy Bangkok +66 2 305 8333 email:[email protected] In certain circumstances Consular staff may be able to issue an Emergency Travel Document but this is not a substitute for a full UK passport. So the best course of action is to apply as early as possible, and to make sure that you follow the new guidelines. Please note that our Consular staff will not be able to take calls about individual passport applications and they cannot countersign passport applications. If you cannot find the information needed on GOV.UK you should contact the Passport Adviceline on +44 300 222 0000 (operates from 8am-8pm UK time) or e-mail: [email protected].
