Just wondering if the Phuket 'procedure' is the same everywhere....you sit with the IO..he checks you have all the correct requirements for annual 'retirement' extension...approves the application.. Stamps your passport...passes the passport to a clerk who enters all the details on the datbase..updates your 90 days report date...takes a digital photo....you pay the 1900 baht...he gives you a receipt...then you have to go back the following day at 1pm in person to collect your passport. Just seems like an unnecessary journey?
