Hello all
I am getting a new passport while still in thailand.
How do i handle the thai side of this? What do i need to do about my current visa stamp.
The usa said they woudl provide what is needed for the thais.
I want to know how long the thai side of things will take and if i can do it here in cnx.
The dates will be close for the return of my new passport and me leaving for a neighboring country (visa is expiring).
Thanks for the insight.
Edit to add:
Thanks for the quick help. Go to know i can do it at cnx immigration right away.
Cheers
TLDR : Answer Summary
To transfer your visa stamp to a new passport while in Thailand, you need to visit the local immigration office (in this case, CNX immigration). Take both your old and new passports along with a letter from your embassy, which the USA provides for the Thai immigration process. It's advised to carry all relevant documents and photocopies, as immigration officers can request various paperwork. The transfer process typically takes only a few minutes and may cost around 500 baht.
