US embassy to hold consular outreach in Phuket

PHUKET: The Consular Section of the US embassy in Bangkok will be in Phuket on March 16 to provide consular outreach services.

Consular staff will provide limited services at the Hilton Arcadia Resort and Spa in Karon from 8am to midday.

The following services will be available during the visit:

Notarial services and certified copies (US$50 or 1,550 baht). This includes income affidavits for retirees in Thailand.

Passport renewal applications ($110 or 3,410 baht for adult passports, and $105 or 3,255 baht for a child’s passport).

Extra visa pages ($82 or 2,542 baht). Note: The embassy staff can accept applications, but the passports will have to be taken back to the embassy for final processing the next working day.

Prepaid Thailand Post envelopes will be available for purchase at the event for people wanting to have their passports mailed back to them.

Alternatively, applicants can collect their passports in person at the embassy or have a friend collect it by giving them written authorization to present to embassy staff.

Social security, VA, or other federal benefits questions will be received and staff will try to provide forms and answers. If staff cannot answer questions at the outreach, they will send a response later.

Applicants for any services are required to bring exact change.

Consular Reports of Birth cannot be processed during consular outreach trips.

For more information about the outreach call the American Citizen Services Unit at Tel: 02-205 4049 or email [email protected].

The next two outreaches planned for Phuket will be on June 16 and September 16, 2011.
