TLDR : Answer Summary

After your passport expires, you need to obtain a new passport. Keep your old passport along with your DTV visa documentation to present when entering or exiting Thailand. There is no automatic issue with the visa itself as long as you have the valid passport and the necessary documentation.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
