Can I renew my US passport while living in Thailand?

Yes, you can renew your US passport in Thailand. The process involves visiting the US Consulate in Bangkok or using their online resources to follow the renewal procedures. Many expats report that the process is straightforward and can take about 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the method you choose (in-person vs mailing). While some individuals opt to use a local agent for assistance, it's not mandatory, as the renewal form can be filled out and mailed directly to the Consulate.
