I am in Thailand with extension of stay granted in December 2018 (extension of F-visa) at which time I got a multi re-entry permit.

I have now renewed my passport due to name change after marriage, but have been told that I can't transfer my multi re-entry permit, only my extension. I would need to buy another re-entry permit. Is this correct?

If so, can I travel in/out of Thailand with both passports until my next extension is due?

Many Thanks in advance of your advice.

The user also inquires whether they can travel in and out of Thailand using both their old and new passports until their next visa extension.
