A quick update on my visit to CW to:

1) Transfer stamps to my new UK passport that was issued in Thailand after my last overseas trip at Xmas time.

2) Submit 90 day report ( first in person report after overseas trip)

Stamp transfer went like clockwork. I just handed over the form and the copies listed on the form.

For the 90 days report I had made an appointment through the online booking system. Appointment was for 11:40am and I was called at 11:41am so can’t complain about that!

I had prepared a new TM30 as soon as I received my new passport but the IO informed me that the new passport hadn’t been registered in their system until I had completed the stamp transfer had been completed therefore my TM30 was invalid. She let it go and approved my report but said I needed to resubmit my TM30 again with the new passport number before my next report as indicated by the below stamp on my 90 day receipt. Conclusion. If you get a new passport in country you need to complete the stamp transfer process and submit a new TM30 before you do a 90 day report or it might be rejected. In my case I managed to do stamp transfer and 90 day report on the same day but only because the IO was kind enough to give me a pass this time. I will do a new TM30 and see if I can do my next report online.
Answer summary
The author shares their experience transferring stamps to a new UK passport and submitting their first 90-day report after returning to Thailand. The stamp transfer was smooth, requiring only the necessary forms and copies. Despite preparing a new TM30 for the updated passport, the immigration officer explained that the new passport would not be registered until the stamp transfer was completed, thus rendering the TM30 invalid. The officer approved the report as a courtesy but instructed that a new TM30 must be submitted with the updated passport number before the next report. Key takeaway: If you receive a new passport in Thailand, complete the stamp transfer and submit a new TM30 before filing a 90-day report.

Don't forget you'll also need to update your details at the bank and phone company.
