cigar7 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I am in the process of completing a TM8 application for re-entry permit into the kingdom, for a retirement visa. Halfway down the first page it asks year and date of birth and then directly afterwards the next 2 spots ask for changwat and country. Do these 2 spots want the one's birth city and country ?

ubonjoe Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 It could be the state, provenience or whatever the equal is called where you were born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cigar7 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Changwat means province not city. In my Canadian passport, my birth place is stated as city and country, there is no mention of province. If I put in the province (changwat) as the form indicates, will immigration reject it since it won't match the passport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 They will not reject it because you gave them what they asked for. They will not compare it to your passport. The departure and return dates are not important either. You can put any date you want in those spaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpcoe Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I think I can corroborate that they don't check the changwat/country one has entered on the TM.8 against the passport. I have a copy of all my forms for the years 2009-2013, and I put Cholburi/Thailand or Prachuap Khiri Khan/Thailand in those spaces. Ooops.
