Hello,
Hope someone can advise :)
My passport (Italian) will expire during my non immigrant visa for 1 year, I will try to renew my passport while in Thailand, my question is: will I receive my new passport without the visa and I'll have to reapply for the visa?
Thank you :)
TLDR : Answer Summary
When you renew your passport while on a non-immigrant visa in Thailand, you will receive a new passport without any existing stamps. You must then visit the immigration office to have your visa transferred to the new passport. It is essential to carry both the old and the new passport during border runs or when applying for extensions, as the visa in the old passport cannot be transferred, but any Extension of Stay must be moved.
