george Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 US embassy consular outreach clinic in Phuket PHUKET: -- The Consular Section of the US embassy in Bangkok will be in Phuket tomorrow (December 17) to provide consular outreach services. The “consular clinic” will be at the Metropole Hotel on Montri Road in Phuket Town from 8am to midday. Consular staff will be available to provide services on: • Passport renewal applications ($110 or 3,300 baht for adult passports, and US$105 or 3,150 baht for a child’s passport). • Notarial services and certified copies ($50 or 1,500 baht). This includes income affidavits for retirees in Thailand. • Extra visa pages (US$82 or 2,460 baht). However, the embassy notes, “We can accept applications, but the passports will have to be brought back to the embassy for final processing the next working day. “As of this writing, Thailand Post has approved our request to use prepaid envelopes to return passports. We will bring prepaid envelopes on outreaches that you can buy from us (at cost) if you wish us have us mail your passport back to you. “Alternatively, you can pick up your passport at the embassy. You can also have a friend pick up your passport by giving them written authorization to present to us,” said the consular release. Consular Reports of Birth cannot be processed during consular outreach trips. The next two outreaches planned for Phuket will be on March 16 and June 16, 2011. For more information on US consular outreach services, email [email protected] or call the American Citizen Services Unit at 02-205 4049. -- Phuket Gazette 2010-12-16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
