ChiangMaiMail Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 At today's meeting of the Chiang Mai Expats Club, US Consular Chief Andrew Veprek of the US Consulate here in Chiang Mai announced that the State Department plans to increase the fees for notarial services to $50 and in a bigger change, will implement an $82 fee for additional passport pages which are currently added for free. You can add pages to your passport twice, with each addition consisting of 24 pages. These charges are expected to be in place within a month. Additionally, passport fees are expected to be raised from $75 to $135. Mr. Veprek noted that all new passports issued out of Chiang Mai are now the business size which carries more pages. You must make an appointment to get pages added, and Mr. Veprek encouraged people to do so as soon as possible.

Bakeman Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Perhaps because many yanks that post here on Tv brag about all the cash they have. Looks like the US government read Tv. Yank has such a negative connotation. Be nice mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonobo Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I was told at our Bangkok VFW meeting that the fees would be implemented no earlier than August. Does anyone have a firm date on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
