Thai Passport

[LivinLOS]

Just looking online.. Seems a 'temporary passport' may be possible but I cant tell if theres a full MFA here in the city ??

If there isnt we will be on Phuket where I know you can get a passport issued simply, and I am just trying to plan it so a visit to bangkok just for this purpose is avoided.

Can a full Thai passport be applied for in CM ?? Doesnt matter if it gets posted out later, we are in no hurry.

Yes. Goto to municipal offices in Mae Rim. Inside, bottom floor on the left. Fill in the app and pay, you will get the passport within a week, 1000B

You need to go to the Salaklang office between CM & Mae Rim. As far as I remember its the big brown/red coloured building on the left of the site as you face in. Through the big door/arch at central front of building. Take a left as soon as you pass through and the door is on that row (maybe first or second ) on left.

They post to you, I think my sons arrived in about 7 days. I'm pretty sure they did the photos there. So you need ID and house reg.

Perfect answer.. It is possible and I can just do it as time permits, rather than adding a busy day to a short vacation.

Thanks very much..

Yep, they take them and are automatically scanned onto the passport.

Girls don't forget your makeup.

Oops...maybe boys too.

If you live in an apartment and dont feel safe about it being mailed to you, you can also arrange to pick it up at the office. Only need ID card.
