ORIGINAL POSTER

I went to Bangkok Immigration today to purchase a Multiple-entry permit (TM8). Got there when the office opened after lunch and was out of there at 2:30pm. It actually would have taken less than 90 minutes but I got my number (C264), went to the copy center, ate lunch, and did some shopping. When I got back I missed my number. Had to get another (C297). Still "only" 90 minutes.

Going after lunch seems to be the way to do it.
