Hello All

I have recently applied for a new passport and should receive it any time.

My 1 year retirement visa expires 21/8

Do I need to go to immigration and get visa transferred from old passport to new passport and then renew visa for a further year or can I take both old and new passport and renew visa with required documents straight into new passport?

Thanks again for help.

Answer summary

The user is seeking advice on whether to transfer their retirement visa from an old passport to a new one before renewing it, or if they can present both passports to renew directly.

Seeing as most offices let you apply for a new year extension when you have 30 days or less you can do the stamp transfer and apply for the yearly extension all at once BUT be ready to have a cranky immigration officer 😛 because of all the "work" they have to do to move the stamps AND give you a year extension stamp in the new passport too 😛

there are more forms to fill in... But it's free. In bkk they didn't complain for me. But it was a different person who first did the movie, i think. Maybe the person who prescreened it. Then the new stamp was added.
