exactly this - had my US passport renewed in Oct. The mail in process required 4 weeks from the day I mailed it until the day I received it. It's always a bit disconcerting to not have physical possession of your passport but the renewal process worked very efficiently IMO.
I'm currently in ALQ and used this policy to get my COE approved by RTC/DXB for EK384 DXB-BKK on 15-Jun. No issues at all, accepted at EK check-in in DXB and Thai Immigration in BKK.
is 100 percent correct here. I'm currently in ALQ and used the Emirates/AIG free policy to fly EK384 DXB-BKK on 15-Jun. COE approved with no issue whatsoever. Accepted at EK checkin in DXB and Thai Immigration at BKK.
I...ahem...see what you mean. What branch location was this? Feel free to PM with contact details and phone numbers as well. I'll tell 'em Frederic the Great referred me. 😉
thx, that's what I wanted to know. I've seen some youtube vlogs where it's clear that K-bank seems very ex-pat friendly in terms of account opening/funding. Just doing some forward planning for my non-O visa and subsequent extensions of stay which require proof that transferred funds originated from overseas.
