Seems like I spend a lot of time each year on visas, on-line reporting, passports etc. Always seems to be something Googling around took me a little longer than usual to find the links for applying for a UK passport in Thailand and a lot of ads/ services. So for anyone else doing so: Here's the starting link on the official website if getting a UK passport from Thailand www.gov.uk/overseas-passports/y/thailandHere's the link with the 3 main docs people would look at: 1) Application 2) Guidance notes 3) Supporting doc requirements These are for a child but the other links are easy to find if you start from the link bove for getting a passport www.gov.uk/overseas-passports/y/thailand/renewing_new/childYou still need to make an appointment, by email. Location is still Trendy Office Building on Sukhumvit Soi 13 Your friendly embassy / consulate still wants nothing to do with you as far as this is concerned You’ll need to book an appointment by email. Include your first name and last name and 3 alternative dates and times. You will receive an email confirming your appointment. UK Visa Application Centre The Trendy Office Building, 28th Floor, Sukhumvit Soi13, Klongtoey-Nua, Wattana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand Email: BangkokHMPO@vfshelpline.com

If using Thai card make sure it is good for paper payment transaction.
