How Long Does It Take To Renew A Thai Passport

[meme]

My husband needs to renew his Thai passport so he can send it to get his Permanent Resident Visa for Canada.

Does anyone know how long this takes?

5 working days in Udon Thani from interview to receipt by EMS. Khon Kaen was about the same.

Same day service, here in Bangkok.

Same day in Chiang Mai

If you live in Trang your nearest office is Songkla -very good service and will send EMS to you in about 3 or 4 days.

You probably know but you have to renew (in person) every 5 years - no more extend 5 years on the biometric ones.

Thank you for the replies. He could also get in done in BKK, especially if it is same day service. Where would this be at? Ministry of foreign affairs?

There are 3 locations in Bangkok, Chaeng Wattana being one of them. Have a look at this link. Apply in the morning and collect in the afternoon.
