hello..
I have a passport with valid visa which will be expired on coming February. I will get my new passport in next week. But I need to go back to my country before I get my new passport.
Is it possible to enter Thailand with my old passport?
I heard that passport needs to be at least 6 months period of time left active. Please help me to answer. Thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires about the possibility of entering Thailand with an old passport that has a valid visa expiring soon while waiting for a new passport. The community clarifies that, generally, the passport must be valid for the duration of stay, which is usually applicable for visas. Since the user has a NON-O visa and their passport is valid until February, they should be able to re-enter Thailand as long as their old passport hasn't been canceled by the consulate. However, it’s advised to confirm with the local consulate regarding the specifics on traveling with an old passport while waiting for a new one.
