bangkokgas Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Just wondering if there is any requirement on how much space you should have page-wise in your passport at the airport. I am planning a 4 week trip and have only one and a half pages left (passport expires 2018 so ok there). Only want 30 day stamp on entry and not leaving thailand in those 28days..any help appreciated, just don't want to have to get a new passport when only 2 stamps, entry and exit needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 You have enough space, entry and exit should not require more than half a page if you ask them to conserve space. But time to get a new passport in case you need to travel quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBoldnewguy Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 FYI - If a US PP addn'l pages are available (not free) - You don't have to renew - 2018 is long time in future - why not be ahead of game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonsalviz Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The last 2 pages are for endorsements. That is where the pges will be attached. If those are open you are fine. If not they will find a place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegasphl Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Be smart....get the pages added to u r passport b 4 you come to thailand. Go on the state dept website, download the "add pages" form, mail in with your passport and required dollar amout and get 28 additional pages added to u r passport. Be smart about things. Dont take a chance when you are 8000 miles away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlesHH Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 very like ok. get added pages soon, not a new passport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinLOS Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I also had a shock in the last couple of days that my 2 and a bit year old passport is down to only a couple of pages left clear.. Also annoying in how they will stamp square in the center of a page leaving no room for any other stamps when just a little bit of care would be able to use it so much more efficiently. Lucky for me I discovered 2 pages stapled together (thanks immigration) and Indonesian immigration (where I hope to go for a break) will usually put a visa sticker on top of a full page if you slip them a token thank you.. Adds up to quite a cost in hassle factor and direct cost just keeping passports clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyf Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 It is not a problem. I came back into Thailand a month ago from Malaysia with no clear space left. The Thai Immigration did not bat an eyelid, just squeezed the stamp into the largest space overlapping the adjacent stamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is bad advice, get a new passport or pages, do not give the immigration office an excuse to deny entry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do not all have the luxury of additional pages or a replacement from the embassy in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raybal5 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Sadly, Australian Passports cannot have pages added. https://www.passports.gov.au/web/faq.aspx#faq15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I think the US may be the only country that adds pages to it's passports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
