ORIGINAL POSTERHi guys, anyone recently came in with new passport and DTV visa on old passport? Any issue?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation addresses the process of entering Thailand with a new passport while holding a DTV visa in an expired old passport. It is recommended to bring both the old and new passports when traveling, as immigration may require viewing both. Additionally, travelers are advised to transfer the visa to the new passport for streamlined entry and compliance with Thai immigration rules.

Second entry already on DTV with new passport. On the first they told me to bring always the old passport and had to show it. On the second entry they didn't want to see it.
But bring always 2 passports, you never know.
