Domestic Couriers From Phangan To Us Embassy Bangkok?

[erika9891]

I have a US passport that is full and I need extra pages. I don't have time to go to Bangkok myself, but I have been told I can send my passport with a courier.

I was wondering if anyone new a courier service that can get my passport, forms, and payment from Koh Phangan to the US Embassy in Bangkok at a specific appointment time, return i to pick it up and get it back to me in Phangan within 7 days?

I appreciate any info.

Thanks!

when is your appointment?

You probably know this already but in addition to the completed forms, make sure whoever goes to do it has a signed authorization letter allowing them to do it in your stead. (And photo ID.)

I can make the appointment for whenever. I just need to make sure the courier will actually show up. I do know I need to send them with the forms and a signed letter of authoriztion.

All I need is the name of a trust-worthy service that wont lose my passport or forget about it. I need to go on a visa run on the 17th so I would need it back no later than the 16th.

A bit off topic but as far as I know it is not much more expensive to get a new passport rather than add pages.

[erika9891]

It is for US citizens. New passport with 24 pages is about $80. New Passposrt with 48 pages is about $160 dollars.

48 Extra pages is only $82

It's just the trip to bangkok and back that is expensive. I just need to find someone who can do it for me.

Really...no one has any suggestions for me?

"New Passport with 48 pages is about $160 dollars."

Actually, the cost is $110 for an adult to renew a US Passport.

OP, why not just call ACS and ask them?

Maybe you could Fed Ex it to the Embassy.

Or they can tell you about their 'Outreach Program". You could apply at one of those, and they can now mail your PP back to you.

there should be a UPS office somewhere (call BKK office) because I receive sometimes parcels from USA with that courier

There are many courier services(UPS,DHL,etc) , but they deliver only point to point.

OP is looking for some person who does the trip and handles the paperwork.

Must be a trustworthy person, I for myself do not know of any private courier services who handle such cases.
