- The Embassy recommends that all Saudi citizens should register their passports electronically at the Embassy through the official website or e-application.
- If the passport is lost or stolen, the holder of the passport should immediately report the lost at the nearest police station in Thailand, and should save the number and date of the report as recorded in the police file and then visit the embassy to complete the necessary procedures.
- Stay away from places of political gatherings or demonstrations and not to involve or participate in any political demonstration as it is considered an internal political matter of Thailand.
