TLDR : Answer Summary
The turnaround time for receiving a new passport from the American embassy in Bangkok is generally between 2-4 weeks if applied by mail, although it may take longer if applied directly in the U.S. Recent updates suggest the processing time could now be 5-6 weeks. For those needing to renew passports quickly due to visa expiry, it is advised to apply as early as possible considering potential delays.
Took 23 days from the day that I mailed it in to the Embassy using Thai postal service EMS to the day that it was returned via EMS. That was about 2 months ago.
Well I was applying for my retirement visa and had the two full pages but I had a minor setback that forced me to do a border bounce to Laos. Now I don’t have the 2 pages required and I was just wondering if the turnaround time would be sufficient within the 25 days i have left.
