TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around finding agencies to assist with renewing a UK passport while in Thailand. Several community members suggest checking the UK embassy website for guidance and mention VFS Global as a key agency location in Bangkok. Keyvisa in Pattaya is also recommended for its efficiency. Many users highlight that the passport renewal can be done online and possibly through various agents to expedite the process. However, others emphasize the importance of understanding the process and potential time frames involved, noting that in-person trips may still be required.

Can do all online in UK. Send to your UK address or friends address. Get someone to post out to Thailand for you.

I think it’s harder with the UK consulate to do this; do they even have a UK consulate? A friend of mine lost his US passport. A photo of the lost passport made it easier. Otherwise fill out the application, make the appointment online, pay the money and the US Consulate issues a temporary 1 year passport. If the flight out is imminent, just walk in on a day they they are open.

@Frederick ********

the UK don't post passports out.

If you do it yourself, you need to make 2 trips to Bangkok.

One to drop of the paperwork and then back there again once the new passport arrives.

Frederick Hamblin you start here mate.

It is done via VFS at the Trendy building, Soi 11, Bangkok.

It's now up to a 13 week wait.

If your visa is expired or expiring, you will be on overstay
