Hi

I’m a UK-passport holder, got a 60-day eVISA and went to Phuket under the ‘Test and Go’ scheme in mid-Nov.

I lost my passport in Bangkok 8 days ago ; made a police report in Bangkok, then reported it to the UK authority and ordered a new UK passport online.

My questions are:

When I get my new passport, can I get it re-stamped in Chiang Mai Immigration Office? Or do I have to get back to Phuket Immigration or Bangkok Immigration to have it done?

I still have the photocopy of my old passport (only the photo page), eVISA, COVID vaccination certificate, Thailand Pass, police report ; However I lost the landing slip too, which was attached inside the old passport ; What are the procedures and documents needed to get my new passport re-stamped (in Chiang Mai Immigration if possible)? Are passport photos needed for this process?

Final question is not related to VISA issues – does anyone have any advice or recommendations with regards to sending my new passport from UK to Thailand?

Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary

A UK passport holder who lost their passport while in Thailand seeks guidance on getting their eVISA re-stamped in Chiang Mai after obtaining a new passport. They ask about the procedures and required documents for re-stamping, especially after losing their landing slip and needing to provide their old passport's photocopy, eVISA, and police report. Additionally, they request advice on sending the new passport from the UK to Thailand.

You will need an embassy letter to move your stamp to your new passport.

When you loose a passport in Thailand you make a police report and apply at your Embassy for a new passport, they will make sure you can pick it up at the Embassy or sent it to your address in Thailand.
