Jonathan Fairfield Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 There's a new immigration office due to open in the basement at BluPort, close to where all the banks are. No info yet on actual opening date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgordo38 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I guess they could not find any 75% empty malls with a rent that immigration just could not refuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannot Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 how many more times are they going to move???????????? 3rd time in memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nongkhai Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 (edited) It's 4 times for me. They just can't help themselves. (1.Out Soi 102 way. 2. Soi 17. 3. Out on the canal road. 4. Out on the back street behind the palace.) From what I've heard the Immigration office at BluPort is for 90-day check-in only. For everything else the next move (i.e. from the back street by the Kings palace where it is now) will be way out of town across the highway by-pass. Apparently they are getting a new building constructed and I'm not sure if that is finished yet. The Thai taxi dudes will love it I've been in Canada now for a 6 week stay, but will check it out when I get back to HH on May 11. When I left the snapshot in the opening post was how it looked. Some weeks on now my guess is that is probably open now. Edited April 21, 2017 by nongkhai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Fairfield Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 I'm due at immigration on Monday so I will ask them then. When I was at BluPort last Sunday, i peeked in the window and noticed the office inside was pretty much ready. Computers installed, furniture in place etc. I think the office at BluPort would be pretty convenient, even if it is only for 90 day check ins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nongkhai Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 55 minutes ago, my friend I said: Is there an immigration office in Prachuap city. I don't think so. The border office (Don Sing Khon) will have to do. It's not very far from Prachuap KK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Fairfield Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 I was at Immigration on Monday and they told me the BluPort office would be opening "next month". Whether that means 1 May or 31 May, they didn't say but expect it to be opening fairly soon. The office will be open for 90 day reporting at first, visa renewals etc still need to be done at the current office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Fairfield Posted April 29, 2017 Author Share Posted April 29, 2017 I've got some more official info about the new immigration office at BluPort. It will open on May 9 and one of the things they are using there will be a new queuing system. When you arrive you scan a QR code with your phone and that marks your place in the queue. You can then go shopping around BluPort and when it's your turn you'll receive a message on your phone informing you. There is some other changes to immigration in HH too, just waiting for some info to be confirmed but we'll run a story on it in the HH news forum later today hopefully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
