UPDATE: UK Passport Renewal in Bangkok: 4 Weeks on... DENIED or APPROVED? (2025)

Welcome to the latest video for my channel @KhonKaenDen. In this video, I give an UPDATE on my recent trip to Bangkok in order to renew my UK passport. Did it all go swimmingly like it seems to for everyone else? Did it buggery! Watch now to see where I am up to almost four (yes 4) weeks on.

I also apologise for my misspelling of 'correspondence' which I spell 'correspondance' in the video... or maybe it is a kind of new jive on the cobbled streets of Manchester... the Corrie Spon Dance. I'll get my coat.

If you feel that I have missed anything out, let me know in the comments section and I will try to help. Enjoy!
