I mailed an expired PP and application to HK by EMS International at 1130 am on 06 Jan from a Pay at Post Hua Hin and the cost was ThB 605 (based on weight). Tracking it on-line it was at Suwanabhumi midnight on 07 Jan ready to fly out.

Half the price of DHL

I hope you did not sent the expired PP as that is not required as per the instructions on the website. And without a passport or copy in Thailand you could be arrested.

I sent mine by EMS as well, 400 baht for EMS and about 50 for the package.

So, I don't send my daughter's passport , just a copy?

Oh, btw, is it easy enough to get a banker's draft in HK$ ?

Read the notice about being in Thailand, it states that because of the law here, you do not have to send your old passport when renewing, just a copy.

I used a credit card to pay (my wifes).

What about a kid that got a passport when she was 9 months old and is now 5 years old?

The photo on the passport is nothing like her - could this be a problem?

Fine until she is 5 years and 9 months then. It is strange to think that my 3 month old daughter will be able to travel on the same photo when she is 5 years old. I strongly doubt she will look anything like the cute little bundle of poo and wee she is right now ;)

Ok thanks. Although my daughter has a Thai passport too so doesn't need her UK one here.

My documents were signed for by the HK recipient at around 0930 on 08 January 2012 as 'tracked' on the EMS 'Track and Trace' website. Good service!

The Passport was that of my wife who has dual nationality; she is resident here as Thai.
