You don’t have to be in Pattaya it can be done by EMS postage
STEP 1
> Always have a copy of your UK passport when you are overseas in case of a theft or you have lost the original passport “copies cost pennies”
> When you realize the UK passport is missing then you should visit your local Thai Police station and report it missing they will in turn issue you with a Thai Police report.
STEP 2
You should start the process by downloading the application (OS) form, for overseas applications, and complete it, making sure you do not forget two major things, > The British Passport application should be completed in black ink only not blue. You will be asked on the form for your parents details so make sure you can access them. The box guidelines on each page of the OS application form will explain how to fill in the form.
STEP 3
> You must then download and print the LSO1 lost UK passport form and fill in the details on the form and make sure it is signed.
> You then download the credit card form from either our website or the British Embassy website and fill it in with the correct details. Payment will be deducted from your account by the passport office in the UK at the HMPO and do not worry it is very secure. If you live in Thailand and do not have a credit or UK debit card then maybe you have a friend or family who can assist with their card it does not have to be your name. If you have a Thailand credit card not a standard debit card this can also be used. If you use a friends credit card who is not a British Citizen then you must take a copy of their details page and put it with the application form.
