Laksi Immigration Thai Immigration Visa Services Entry Procedures Thailand Expat Life

ORIGINAL POSTER

I need to go to Laksi immigration next week - but even when I arrive early - the security guard won’t let me in until 8am.

When I’m finally allowed in there’s already a huge number of people waiting inside.

Is there a secret entrance somewhere?

I’ve tried other doors but all the automatic doors don’t open until 8am. 

Thanks for any help
