Hi there. I will be arriving at Suvarnabumhi next week with a brand new Irish passport. It has a new number. Is there any problem with this? How do they pull up my travel history? Should I bring my old passport just in case? Is my name n fingerprints enough?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is concerned about arriving in Thailand with a new Irish passport containing a different number and whether this will affect their travel history visibility. Responses indicate that photo and fingerprints will retrieve the travel history, making an old passport unnecessary unless it holds a long-term visa. They also advise to keep quiet and only respond if asked questions.

Yes, both your photo and fingerprints will pull up your previous history. You don't need your old passport unless you have your old long-term extension in it. If not then just your passport should be fine

Probably too late now to get your Non-O before you travel so good luck in opening a Thai bank account (unless you already have one)
