Anyone ever caught without passport in random Thai immigration check? What happen?
Was any alternative means of identification such as passport copy, black and white or color accepted? Or Thai driving license accepted? Or other kind of ID? Enough to look up visa status in computer and be free to go?
Dragged to police station, detained and waiting for some third party to bring in the passport?
What if no one can be reached who couldbring thepassport? Detained for a long time and deported?
They really dont escort the the farang to its apartment and check the passport? Theyd really go through the hassle of long detention and deportation instead?
What does immigration the passport need for anyhow other than convenience or faster processes? Doesnt immigrationthey keep digital copies (arrival cards, passport scans at border) in some computer database anyhow? I suppose its all in the computer anyhow? Expecting too much?If they refuse to look at the database, then whats the point of the database?
Theyll make a photo at each border entry and scan the passport. Isnt that sufficient to identify someone whos revealing their real name? Wouldnt that even be sufficient to identify someone who cant reveal their real name?
Anyone ever caught without passport in random immigration check? Immigration has a database of all farangs?
