I have dual Australian and UK nationality. My original Type O, 2011, was from Hull in my UK passport. I have gotten yearly extensions based on over 50 since then. My question is, can I have that Type O visa transferred to my Australian passport?
I am in Bangkok. Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus from community comments suggests that it is generally not possible to transfer a Type O visa from one passport to another, including from a UK passport to an Australian passport. Usually, a visa extension can only be transferred when replacing a passport from the same country, not to a different nationality.
I'm also a dual national and I asked my employer if this was possible (not on an O visa, therefore) and I was told 'cannot' in any circumstances - I would have to leave the country and begin a new application process in my other passport...
As far as I know, no you cannot get an extension transferred from one passport to another unless you're replacing a passport. I have never seen someone get one transferred to a passport from another country
