Can I enter Thailand on an Emergency Travel Document with a work permit?

I had a similar situation recently, let me say it's going to take more than 30 days to get your passport from bkk and you cant use the emergency travel document to get a 30 day stamp. The work permit could help you out there if you're a resident. The place you'll go to in bkk is not the embassy but trendy tower in Asoke, 8th floor or maybe 28th I can't remember . It's a really trickey situation. I ended up waiting 2 months for my passport and paid a 20k overstay fine.

Just noticed your coming in visa exempt and on an emergency travel document? I wouldn't be so sure personally. Have you spoken to the consulate in Bali for guidance?

Get your 30 days in thialand. Then extend it whilst awaiting new passport current waiting is 3-4 weeks confirmed yesterday

Did you actually get the ETD yet? It seems unclear from your post. Because you have to specify the countries you plan to visit in the intended order (which is printed in the ETD) and I think you're stuck with that after. I would imagine if the British consulate in Bali has a problem with the end country being Thailand, they'd mention that when you submit your itinerary and ETD application.

It's not Thailand, but I needed to get an ETD in China (where I was living) to go from China - Germany - Netherlands - UK - China, transfer all the residence stuff over from my lost passport to the ETD, and then after the trip transfer everything over to my new passport when it arrived (in China).

The two things I'd probably be concerned with is (i) whether the 30 days exemption is long enough to get a new passport in BK (you can check the gov.uk website - last time I checked the lead time was 3-4 weeks or something), and (ii) if the work permit is useful for anything, since you're planning to enter on an unrelated exemption and sort out the non-B visa later. Would it be possible (in principle) to get the non-B visa in an ETD? They can change the validity date depending on your requirements.

What I might be tempted to look into personally is submitting an itinerary saying you're going from Bali to Thailand to Laos (or whatever - for the non-B) to the UK, then get the new passport in Thailand and switch over to that between exiting Thailand and entering Laos. Though I suppose there might be issues with getting all the documents in time, especially if you need your new passport number for the documents for the non-B. Just a thought - don't know if it's feasible or not.

A UK emergency travel MUST list on it, the country your needing to travel too. It can list upto 5 countrys BUT they must be printed on the document. You cannot simply use it as a passport.

my brother lost his passport in New Zealand, did get a document to fly back to Germany and it wasn't a problem to do a 2 weeks stop here in Thailand to visit me.

Passports are done by VFS in the Trendy building on Soi 13, not the embassy.

You can stipulate the countries you wish to visit on your way home . Not sure of amount to of countries though

If you can come into Thailand on the 30 day Visa Exempt Entry that also means you are not allowed to work, what I not understand is that nobody seems to know but the person from the British Consulate who handed your ETD must know the purpose of this paper. Only one way back England or can travel to other country.

im not to sure about this one ,never heard of it befor . there are lots of people that have work permits but dont live here full time ,so im doubting that a work permit would be enuff to get you in . interesting , can you let us know the outcome please.?

That should be enough to show that you do indeed reside here. I don't think you'll have problems at all stamping in on a 30 day visa exempt entry.
