Quick question for you. 

I renewed my US passport and already transferred the stamps.

I  tried to do my 90 day report online with the new passport (new number)  but it was rejected. So I will need to go to CW and do it in person.

I'm still at my permanent address in Bangkok that is in the system with my old passport number and TM30.

Will I need to file a new TM30 with my new passport as the passport number has changed?

TLDR : Answer Summary

After renewing your US passport and transferring the stamps, you encountered a rejection for your online 90-day report due to the new passport number. You are considering whether to file a new TM30 because your passport information has changed. Based on community advice, it is recommended to file a new TM30 to ensure compliance, even though this could lead to potential mismatches in the immigration system.

I would say go ahead and file a new TM30 if it's not too much trouble

I filed a new TM30 when I got a new passport and just carry the old and new receipts

With the TM30 and the 90 day online system sharing data, even if you do this next 90 day report (with the new passport) in person there's no guarantee that next time you can do one online (because of the mismatch in passport numbers between the systems)

Can I re-submit my TM30 if I lost the receipt while waiting for my new passport?
