Hi guys, got the dtv approved finally. If you have any questions, happy to help. Also, my passport expires in 2026, what is the procedure after that, do we just carry the old and new passport, or is there any other process. Also, does anyone knows what it means in thai, translate app doesn't seem to recognize. Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user has recently had their visa approved and is seeking clarification on the procedure for using an old passport after receiving a new one. Another contributor confirms that when obtaining a new passport, it is necessary to carry both the old and new passports for the validity of the visa.

Can’t help with the hand written Thai.

With a new passport you carry both for the validity of the visa.
