TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the use of multiple passports by individuals with multiple citizenships to potentially bypass immigration rules in Thailand. Community members highlight the effectiveness of biometrics linking all entries to individuals, suggesting that immigration authorities are aware of a person's full entry history regardless of the passport used. While some users share personal experiences of using different passports without issues in the past, the general consensus warns against such practices, stating that changes in passport usage could lead to increased scrutiny and complications.

You're just going to get them to look at your harder if you try this. They are going to ask you why you are changing passports and what you're trying to hide.

All entries are linked via biometrics these days. Immigration will know your entry history regardless of the passport you use.
