    At Suvarnabhumi airport they now have biometric fingerprint scanners in operation.

    You first have to put four fingers of your right hand on the scanner then wait for the green light and then the display tells you to put four fingers of the left hand on the scanner. It's important that you don't put your fingers all the way to the top of the scanner as the system then will not be able to recognize the fingerprints...

    Finally the display tells you to put both thumbs on the scanner - and then you're done. The whole process took about 2 minutes...

    I think the scanner also automatically takes a picture of your face for use in their facial recognition system - at least I didn't have to stand in front of the old "webcam" type of camera at the immigration booth as I used to have to do...

    When leaving Suvarnabhumi one has to scan only four fingers of one hand. Don't know if one has to scan all ten fingers again the next time one arrives at BKK airport or just the fingers of one hand...

    thanks for information.

    did you fill " arrival card " form ?
