I was asked for my TM30 for the first time ever when doing my 90 day report in person at Samut Prakan a couple of weeks ago. Seems 'Big Joke' has them stirred up a bit.

Yeah, I used Hull way back when it was in Spyvie street. I used the one year multi Non Imm O, for around 12 years, and then 4 years ago switched to the retirement extension. Luckily I don't have a problem with the 800K, Will even get interest on it :)

Yes, I believe the service is still available until the end of the working year. As I used it two months ago, I will have to go the 800K route next year :)

I am not splitting hairs, I am pointing out that the Embassy as a diplomatic mission is separate and has a separate function from the Consular affairs section which has a focus on dealing with individual persons and businesses. By all means try to get an appointment with the Ambassador to discuss your passport, see how far you get.

No but the "consular affairs" section is separate from the "Diplomatic mission" as defined by the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations.
