Greetings,
I just got a new American Passport (renewal) in the mail from the Embassy in BKK. I am currently on NON-O 50+ (Retirement) Visa which I got at the Jomtien Office (expires this September 22 2024). I plan to travel to the Jomtien Office this week to have the stamp transferred to my New Passport. New Passport has contains New number.
I have been successfully doing my 90 Day Report online. My next 90 Day Report is due Feb 16th.
Question1:
should I file a TM30 online with the NEW Passport number?
Question2: Do I get a fresh 90 Day Report clock when I go to transfer my Visa Stamp to my New Passport Book?
Question3: Do I have to file my next 90 Day Report in person at the Office with my New Passport?
I should get an email notification to do my 90 Day Report via email to submit my 90 Day Report under my Old Passport Feb 1 (15 days before due date of Feb 16).
I was thinking of doing my 90 Day Report online of Feb 1st using the old Passport number. Then trekking to Jomtien Office Feb 2nd to transfer my stamp to get a fresh clock on the 90 Day Reporting. Will this work? Please share your thoughts and advice. Thank you in advance.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster inquires about procedural steps after receiving a new passport while holding a NON-O 50+ Retirement Visa in Thailand, including whether to file a TM30 with the new passport number, if they will receive a fresh clock on their 90 Day Report upon transferring their visa stamp, and whether the next report needs to be filed in person with the new passport. Commenters suggest filing a TM30 with the new passport, indicate that a new passport does not reset the 90 Day Report clock, and advise on possible complications with online reporting due to the change in passport number.
