Can I extend my tourist visa in Thailand after losing my US passport and obtaining a new one?

No worries

Report back

@Al**

, and let us know what immigration's will do as far as the extension on your tourist visa okay?

Good Luck (y)

You shouldn't have a problem getting your original entry stamp put into your new passport,

BUT I don't know whether the immigration office will let you get a 30 day extension without getting the document from the MFA that they get from the consulate where you got your tourist visa.

I agree with

@Jer***

, just get a new regular passport not a one year one because you'll have it in 10 days or so.

I have seen them be able to just stamp you in for your original arrival stamp from their documentation

Unfortunately getting an extension on your tourist visa situation isn't as easily resolved. :/ I have seen immigrations make you go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (the thai gov't office that runs all the thai consulates in the world) and contact the consulate where you bought your tourist visa and have them send proof you really have one in order to get a 30 day extension on a tourist visa from a lost passport.

Why didn't you get the 10 year passport it will take the same amount of time to get

You should because your information is in the system already...when you go yo immigration they will look you up and give you a stamp for the original date you had then you can go again and get the 30 day extension....this should happen...
