Hi everyone,
Just an update on what i posted few wks ago. Went Bkk passport agency (Trendy Bldg)to renew UK passport on 3rd March. Got email today already bac to be picked up. Exactly 2 wk turnaround. So we all been told 6-8 wks but not so.

TLDR : Answer Summary
An expat shared a recent experience of renewing a UK passport at the Bangkok passport agency, noting a quick turnaround of just 2 weeks instead of the expected 6-8 weeks. Other commenters corroborated this with similar experiences, suggesting that the processing times may vary, especially due to factors like backlogs and reduced staffing. The conversation highlighted the importance of timely passport renewals, especially for expats whose visas are expiring soon.
