Jimi007 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'm not English, but your Embassy should be able to do it for you. I am going to my USA Consulate outreach program in Phuket tomorrow afternoon to submit a passport renewal application, along with 2 photos and 3,360 Baht. You should be able to email the English Embassy on Wireless Road, Bangkok or call them . Just Google them. Good luck, Jimi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 The application needs to be send to HK, not your passport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not recommend you tell them you "lost your passport", that would be a blatant lie. In order to go through the lost passport procedure, you need to go to a police station and make a statement that you lost your passport. Then you need to take the police statement to the UK Embassy. Check out all the links in that link I sent you. Go to the Embassy and talk to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thules Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 You might get away with saying your passport has been lost/stolen, but it's inadvisable. Going this route will probably require you to also submit a false report to the Thai police. Possible double whammy, as both sets of authorities will know when your passport was set to expire... And certainly not a good idea to suggest criminal intent on a public forum ! Fess up now, and pay whatever costs and minor fines you may incur. good luck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
