Hi.

A question regarding immigration in Bangkok queue line. I arrived at 13:37 for doing a change with stamp from old to new passport. 

It's 160 people before me when i got my queuing ticket. They close at 16:30 if i'm not misstaken. How does it work? Do i get the change today or do i get a new number for tomorrow or do i just go home and go early?

Thanks in advance.

Answer summary

The author is seeking advice on whether they will be able to change their passport stamp at an immigration office in Bangkok after noticing a long queue of 160 people ahead of them, given that the office closes at 16:30. A comment indicates that if they have a queue ticket, they should be served, and that it is unusual for so many people to be transferring stamps, suggesting the process is typically quick.

If you have a queue ticket you'll be served. Unusual to have so many people transferring stamps to a new passport. It's usually quick.

Everyone that receives a queue will get served on that day, it may be late but you will get served. The window I went to was the same as where you get a re-entry permit area. I thought they would call my name but after waiting a long time I went back up and asked and it had been sitting there waiting for me to pick it up.
