I had minor water damage with my passport with more than 5 years left until expiry. Went online and got a form to replace damaged passport. The cost is reduced as the replacement still expires the same date ad the damaged passport. Wrnt to the post office and lodged the form as per a normal renewal. If you are a hurry go to the passport office directly. Good luck
That is usual for as you application gets sent to another office for final approval. Foe example mine is done in NST and is sent to Songkhla district office for final approval. ( like big brother wanting to check thing again). I just accept it as it has to be done in the province where you live. No additional charge is applied when you get it stamped.
