What is the process for paying for courier service when applying for a US passport in Thailand?

I started the process last week. The fee was, whatever, I think I tried to order extra pages. I then went to the government site to pay and it did not have the extra page options so my bill was less than what I tried to order.

Point being, I recommend not adding "extra pages" if you see the option.

I also had to renew my passport last Jul (or Aug). The courier service pass back was the most difficult and bitter part. You need to sign up and open an account with the given thai post office link and buy the service. I luckily had an SCB phone app and paid the 100 THB via QR code. You then get an Email with the receipt, which you have to print and send in with the application, pics, and the printed receipt from the US gov fee collecting office (at least they take AMEX). I wrote a long rant about this. The US gov makes us run around in circles over 100 Baht, the equivalent of a one way bus fare in San Francisco. Great idea from our consular service.

When I renewed my American passport I just received from the American embassy in tokyo by parson

It took 10 business day come from Washington DC maybe not in Thailand

Sorry couldn't help you not give you right answer too 😉

You got that right. All applications must be made through the mail. You could ask for an appointment but there are not that many if any available at any given time.

The system sent a number as a text message. I printed the screen shot and it was good enough to get my passport done.

Interesting. I don’t have an answer but have you tried calling the Citizens Services tel #?
