Has anyone transferred DTV to a new passport? Any suggestions how to do this?
Answer summary
Transferring your DTV (Direct Transfer Visa) to a new passport can be straightforward. It's recommended to check the Thai Embassy or Immigration website for guidance. Several users have shared their experiences, noting that the process can be quick, such as one individual who completed the transfer at Sisaket immigration in just 20 minutes and at no cost. If you're traveling while the DTV is in your old passport, it's generally acceptable to show both the old and new passports to immigration officers.
