I need to go to immigration to do my 90 days report and transfer my visa to my new passport.
What documents do I need in order to transfer my visa (aside from my old and new passport + the letter from my embassy)
Thanks π

TLDR : Answer Summary
To transfer your visa to a new passport in Thailand, you primarily need your old and new passports along with a letter from your embassy. It's important to note that while you can report your 90 days, visas typically cannot be transferred; you must keep both passports while traveling until your visa expires.

That's what you need, passports and letter, but they wont transfer a visa, only 'admitted untill', 'extention of stay' stamps and 're-entry permits'. If you have a valid visa you need to keep/travel with both passports untill it expires.
Then you take both passports to the immigration office along with the letter that states you got a new passport and the immigration office will transfer your current entry stamp and any valid re-entry permits to your new passport. They will also note in it that you held an ED visa in your previous passport. Then you don't need the old passport anymore.
IF you have a real multi-entry visa from a thai consulate in another country the immigration office won't transfer it. Instead you travel with BOTH the old and the new passport getting stamped in and out on the new passport until the visa in the old passport expires
What about the original 0-A non visa , I know in my case itβs 4 years old now , so I guess that doesnβt matter anymore they only want to see the last yearly extension / entry. And when that needs renewed/ extended, again they not interested in the original visa ?
Plus my passport still has 4 months left on it , so I take both until it runs out ?
