ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
When renewing your passport, you can transfer your retirement visa from your old passport to your new one by presenting both passports at Thai immigration. Requirements may vary by immigration office; some might ask for copies of your current extension or even all pages of the old passport. It's important to ensure the old passport has at least 6 months left until expiration. Typically, immigration will place your retirement visa in the old passport and assist in transferring it to the new one.
