What should I know about queue numbers at the Chaengwattana immigration office next Friday?
Spotted this notice during a recent visit to immigration in Chaengwattana. Don't know if it applies at any other locations.
Worth marking your calendar if you have any immigration matters to deal with next Friday.

I usually use 24 hours time. All the trains in Japan are listed that way. After years of seeing the utility of it, I use it myself. Pisses off my sibs in the USA.

thai official announcements use 24 hour time (like the military.
Seeing as in the thai it's listed as 12 that'd be noon even without reading thai ;) .
