Hello, I have a non o visa, with 1 year extension expiring Jan 15, 2022. I renewed my USA passport as previous passport was due to expire in apr, 2022.I have valid re entry permit, I am returning to Thailand on December 6th, 2021 planning to do test and go. My question is: I will download copy of new valid passport, but my visa and re entry permit is in old passport that I have also. How would this be handled with Thailand pass? Get COVID insurance 50,000 usd coverage until January 15th. Visa and re entry permit processed at immigration at airport from old passport? Thank you

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user with a non-O visa and a valid re-entry permit is inquiring how to manage their travel back to Thailand with a new passport. They plan to use the Thailand Pass for entry but have concerns about their visa and re-entry permit being in their old passport. The response suggests applying for the Thailand Pass using the new passport, while also carrying both passports for immigration processing.

Once you are in Thailand, go to the immigration office where your extension was issued, then apply for transfer extension stamps from the old one to the new passport.
