TLDR : Answer Summary
If you're facing a delay in receiving your passport from the U.S., you have a few options. Some users have successfully received their passports within a few weeks, while others suggest visiting the embassy in Bangkok, where you can obtain a new passport in about two hours. However, if your situation is urgent and you're without your passport, you might consider staying in Thailand and potentially going into overstay while you wait for its arrival.

Go to the embassy in Bangkok and get one.

Mine took 2 hours.

Mine came within two or three weeks. I was really surprised how quickly.

Without a passport, your option is to go on overstay while waiting for it to arrive.
