Hello, if I have a non-O annual visa in an old passport and made a new passport, I bring both passports to the entry and then have to go to immigration and transfer the annual visa to the new passport, or does that also make the Thai embassy in Berlin ?

Do anyone has experience with passport renewal under title of DTV? I got DTV with old passport number and stayed at Thai 3months. I needed to renew my passport and went back to my hometown and got new passport. If I come back to thailand, Can my dtv visa carry to new one? What can happen to my DTV?

Please suggest me.

New Passport DVT transfer.

After getting my new passport I wasn't quite sure how it would work transferring the visa over.

I flew out of Suvarnabhumi and as I came down the escalator was directed to the new electronic gates. I explained i would need a stamp in my passport and they still pointed at the gates. Ignoring this i went and joined the line for a human immigration officer.

Once I explained that I had a new passport and would need a stamp, I was escorted to a desk at the back where they transfered the stamp coming in previously and the new exit stamp into my new passport 🥳🥳🥳. No questions, no issues, no problems. They advised to bring both passports when I next enter 👍

Hi all, can anyone please advise on what would happen to a DTV with several years remaining if you were to obtain a Thai work permit? Would the DTV be automatically cancelled or would it still be active, if the foreign-based position was continued concurrently? If it is indeed cancelled, is this absolute, or just "paused"? Say if you left the local company could it be resumed again until the 5 years is up? Thanks.

Does anyone know what I should do?

Last year I applied for a DTV visa with my old passport. Last month I went back home and got a new passport. When I returned to Thailand 2 weeks ago, I showed both passports at airport immigration.

Do I now need to go to Chaengwattana immigration to link my DTV visa to my new passport?

Thank you

Hi. New to the group.

I have a retirement visa that is due for renewal mid September. I got a new passport and obviously need to transfer my current visa to my new passport. Should I do the transfer now or wait until next month and do everything together. Thanks 🙏

TRANSFERRING STAMP FROM OLD TO NEW PASSPORT

This is my experience with immigration in Bangkok.

I got my DTV when my passport was 9 months to expiration. In the visa field “Note” they reported the date of my passport’s expiration.

I got my new passport at the embassy and been told to go to immigration to transfer the stamp.

At immigration they have a form for this operation. Just fill the fields with the info of the old and new passport and that’s it. In addition you have to provide a copy of the bio page of old and new passport and a copy of the stamped page of the old passport. Also copy of the visa stamp/pdf file for e-visa like DTV. Moreover they tell you to provide a copy of the TM as well. There is no specification on which TM to provide. Given my experience, I suggest you to provide every kind of TM you have, such as TM 6, TM30 or 90days report if available.

The procedure was straight forward at counter J (tourist affair) but they didn’t like my TM30, even if it was all good for the 90days report I did before. I think the reason is that my field of “Check out date” was empty (even if it is an optional field).

I explained that I’m the owner of the condo, so I don’t have a check out date. Hence they wanted a copy of every page of the ownership document (the big paper) and the house book. Luckily I had pics in my phone, so I just printed them out. And they get the house book page from the server of the TM30 (you need to upload it when you do it).

It was a bit of a surprise but every IO was nice and friendly. Just took time and luck to have the additional documents at hand and made them printed out.

New passport is now stamped with the reference number of old passport, entry date and future exit date.

Out of curiosity I asked for the extension. They told me I had to provide every single document of the application (probably updated). When I said I was on a 1 year Muay Thai course, after a few seconds chat among them, they said I was not eligible for extension. Probably I could try my luck as they discussed really few seconds and not analyzing the case deeply, but mostly likely the answer would still be no.

Hi everyone! I have a question about the DTV visa.

My passport will expire in the next 6 months, so I plan to get a new passport soon.

What should I do for the DTV visa process after I get the new passport?

Do I need to update or transfer the visa to the new passport?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I received my Non-B visa last week, and my work permit is currently being processed. However, due to certain reasons, I need to change to another company. The new company informed me that their processing will take about one month.

I would like to ask:

Is it possible to stop the work permit process with my present company?

If so, can I remain in Thailand with the current Non-B visa for one month while waiting for the new company's documents, even without a valid work permit during that time?

Can I transfer the Non-B visa from my current company to the new company within Thailand?

Please share the information.

Hi everyone, I need help with a DTV-related issue 🙏

My boyfriend is currently staying in Thailand on a DTV. He works remotely for a company based in Luxembourg, but he’s living in Thailand.

Recently, his passport with the DTV visa stamp got damaged in the washing machine 😭😭 — the visa page is now blurry and unreadable. He has another valid passport, and we’re planning to travel to Moscow next month.

He wants to come back to Thailand in September, but we’re unsure what to do now that the visa is unreadable.

❓ Has anyone dealt with a damaged DTV stamp before?

❓ Can he transfer the visa to the second passport, or does he need to apply for a new one?

❓ Should we go to Thai Immigration now before leaving Thailand? Or apply for a new DTV from Moscow or Luxembourg?

Any advice or experience would be really appreciated. Thank you!
