Hello,

I need to transfer my non b visa to a new passport.

I wondered if it’s possible to do it at any immigration office or does it need to the the same one the visa was done at?

I also wondered what paperwork or documents are needed to do this please?

Many thanks ☺️
Answer summary
You can transfer your Non-B visa to a new passport at the immigration office that issued your visa or any other office, but it's recommended to go to the same one for a smoother process. Required documents typically include copies of both passports' data pages, the Non-B visa, any extension stamps, and your most recent entry stamp to Thailand. There is no universal form across all offices, so it's important to obtain the specific form needed at the office you visit. If you're British, ensure to mention needing a letter as immigration may ask for it.

If you are British tell them you need the letter. VFS fobbed me off saying I didnt need it but immigration asked for it.

I am doubtful you are actually talking about a Non-B visa and it's far more likely that you mean an 'extension of stay' based on employment (look at the stamp in your passport)

You take both passports to the office that issued your extension and transfer the stamps.

With over 80 offices it's tough to say what exactly they will require but most require copies of data page of your old & new passport, copies of the Non-B visa and any extension stamps, your most recent entry stamp to thailand.

There is no 'standard form' that all the offices use just get any form they require when you're at that office.
