Is it necessary to get the retirment extension transferred into my new passport.
What are your views on this small problem please.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual plans to return to Thailand for 120 days with a valid retirement extension in their old passport while using a new passport for entry. They are inquiring whether it is necessary to transfer the retirement extension to their new passport, given they do not intend to renew their stay afterward. Comments suggest that while immigration typically transfers visas from old to new passports, it may not be necessary in this case, as the retirement extension will cover the individual's stay. Some participants note potential concerns regarding immigration officials upon exit but acknowledge the lack of requirement for a visa during departure.
