So : Do I need one copy or 2 copies of everything ? ie Original TM7 and one copy One or two copies of Passport pages ? Thanks in advance.... Cheers SB If you are talking about retirement extension then I have only ever required 1 copy of everything including forms but be prepared to visit the copy room because you will, like me, probably have forgotten something. Or you might get the IO who's wife/daughter runs the copy shop, wink, wink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never needed one in 9 years but what harm will it do? for your peace of mind make one. TM 7 no copy required. Don't forget the pics, on form and outside your door with house/condo number visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I was standing there with copies of every page in my passport he proceeded to fold down about six pages of my passport and insisted I go make copies of those pages.

Yes I have had him too a couple of times, I copy every pp page but he still asks for the page he tells me I didn't copy, and a couple of times I have tried to retrieve my copies but his vice like grip is having none of it, best to just go get the extra copies, saves time and the all important face. not a big deal but a slight annoyance because you know you have copied everything heh ho.

Are you talking about the skinny IO officer that's been there for at least the past 11 years I've seen and always works in retirement or long term extensions? He used to give me grief, but now we're very on very friendly terms as I always would joke with him, ask how his daughter is and now that I'm married, he likes talking to my wife. He actually came out of the office, greeted me and wiped off the outside seats with a towel as they were wet from the rain back in May. No I never "tipped" him. He sits outside and chats with my wife while the other officer just stamps my passport and paperwork. I'm done in no time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember who it is Jimi but it is all part of the game and generally things go fairly well at Phuket immigration except for the occasional hiccup. All round it is an annual necessary evil that has to be complied with so we just have to get on with it. Once a year is not too bad is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
