Good afternoon, everyone! I seriously need your advice or expertise on particular subject: Visa Stamp Transfer! I’m flying back home this Christmas, and wanted to get a new passport since I’ve got only 2 available pages left in it! Embassy of my country here in Bangkok takes 9-10 months for getting a new passport! Back home is a couple of days! I know, it does sound ridiculous! So I’m going to take my WP and all the documents ( contract with company, etc.,), get a re-entry, since my visa expires in May 2018! Here’s the question: Upon arrival to Bangkok, will i need to show another proof, or funds sufficiency? Will i get any trouble if i show my old passport (with re- entry in it) and a new one? I’ve never faced this sort of issue, and desperately need your advice! Thanks to everyone, in advance!
TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is seeking advice on transferring their visa stamp to a new passport while returning to Thailand. They are concerned about the process involved after obtaining a new passport due to limited pages in their current one and the lengthy processing time at their embassy in Bangkok. The community provides reassurance that showing both the old passport with the re-entry permit and the new passport upon arrival should not pose any problems, as immigration will stamp the new passport with the same expiry date as the extension of stay.
