Danielsiam Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Hello, I was arrived at Suvarnabhumi, with my Thai daughter, so I can go easily to the Priority Line to avoid the long queue. Well, when I arrive at the Immigration counter, the woman officer just starting her shift work. She try to make the computer work, but seems it fail. I am just being patient & waiting for 10 long minutes, with my daughter without speak anything or going to another desk, because I don't want to make a loose face to the Immigration Officer. I am just being respectul & polite... After then 10 minutes, she seems to stamp my passport & the Thai passport of my daughter as well.. without take photos of us. After I mention that in our entries stamp, the IO signed the stamp & under she put CD I am got confused what does mean that CD, I am thinking alot, can be her itinital ? I think not, all of my entries stamp since 11 years I never see that. I am thinking it's maybe mean Computer Dysfonction ? Well, so what I am scared, it's that my entry are not registered in the computer, and she did it manually.. so, imagine I lose my passport, that it will not possible to retrieve the information at the computer, or imagine, I am gonna leave Thailand & they will think I have a fake entry? Yes, I am so paranoid... Just let see what is yours thinking.. about this CD.. & potentially manually entry without record in their computer system.

MissAndry Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Take a photo of the passport entry on your smartphone. Then you don't need to worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ubonjoe Posted June 18, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2016 If really does mean something about the computer system being down they would enter the info later by using your arrival card. I don't really think it is anything to worry about. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not write they get the info from arrival cards all the time. Only if the computer system was down would they do it. Better than people standing in line waiting for it start working.

KhunBENQ Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) taking a photo will do what??? The OP is afraid that his entry is not in the computer system and he might loose his passport and not having any proof. Always a good idea to do a copy (and printout) of the passport main page and the visa/stamps pages. For the real paranoid (like me ): Scan stored on two computers and somewhere "in the cloud". Printout in the purse. Passport in the safe. To the OP: do copies as described and don't worry. The officer would not have let you go without a hint if something is wrong. This CD mark seems for internal use only. Some time ago there was a report about hacker/sabotage attacks on the Malaysian immigration computer system. As far as I remember it was sabotage by a corrupt officer? Purpose: smuggle blacklisted people/people on search warrants in. Something happening here or just a buggy/instable computer system (reminds me of 90 day report )? Edited June 19, 2016 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtsabai Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I would go to my local immigration office ASAP and have them check it out. Shouldn't be a problem. I did that with a screw up the immigration officer at the Lao border made and corrected by running a line through the 30 day and entering the correct stamp, initialing his screw up. I just wasn't sure and local immigration assured me it was A-OK. No problem as I just renewed my permission to stay (retirement) and multi-entry/exit permit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
