Hi guys, anyone recently came in with new passport and DTV visa on old passport? Any issue?

Hi guys, how do things work with the DTV and the years you have left on your passport before it expires. My passport expires in 2028 for example.

I’m applying as a digital nomad.

Thanks in advance and sorry for this question has been asked before. 

RENEWED PASSPORT - MID EXTENSION - 90 DAY SIGN ON/VISA RE-ENTRY PERMIT

I am based in Bangkok hold a Marriage Visa (extension) and re-entry permit in my original Passport - I recently returned from a 3 week UK and completed my TM30 and TDAC on my passport - however I have now obtained a new UK Passport.

When completing my TM47 I believe that I complete it with my new Passport number/details but take my old passport with me and provide copies of both?

Do I have to submit a new TM30 to reflect my new passport number or do I submit the one raised on my re-entry to Thailand?

Do I get my Visa and re-entry permit transferred to my new passport now or wait until I am due to submit my next annual extension (May/June).

Thank you in advance

Just came in yesterday with DTV in hand…. Stamped in for 60 days Visa exemption

So this is the 3rd entry on DTV, second entry on new passport.

Last entry I tried to show them the old passport for which the DTV was issued, the officer didn’t want to see it, just stamped me in.

This time they said we give you 60 days, go to Phuket Immigration and ask to transfer DTV visa to new passport. They were nice and even apologetic, but unmoving.

Today I go to Phuket Immigration and try to transfer the DTV to new passport. The captain said no chance we don’t do that.

The tourist advisory guy said maybe go back to airport, ask for a different officer and ask for the stamp to be changed back to DTV, maybe go with a lawyer.

So that’s where I stand so far.

Anyone had this happen?

Next steps?

- RE-LINKING DTV with NEW PASSPORT?! MINE WAS STOLEN.-

Hi everyone,

I’m a Canadian currently in Thailand, and my passport was stolen while I was in Europe before re-entering Thailand. I already have a new passport, and my DTV visa is electronic — it was not a physical sticker, and I still have the DTV approval email, receipt, and e-Visa PDF copy.

When I entered Thailand on November 6, I was given a 60-day tourist stamp on arrival, but I’d really like to continue using my valid DTV visa that’s linked to my stolen passport.

The Royal Thai Consulate in Hanoi told me that the DTV can’t be transferred to a new passport, but before applying again I wanted to ask if anyone here has successfully:

1. Re-linked their electronic DTV to a new passport after a theft or renewal, or

2. Had an agent or immigration office assist with this exact process.

Documents I currently have:

• photocopy in black and white of the stolen passport ID page and all pages with stamps before exiting Thailand to go to Europe in September

• Police report (original + translation)

• New passport copy

• Entry stamp (Nov 6) and TDAC form

• DTV e-Visa PDF, approval email, and payment receipt

• TM30 (current residence)

• Supporting docs: passport replacement application + proof of payment, updated lease with my new passport number on it, most recent bank statement, outbound flight and updated Muay Thai invitation letter with my new passport number on it.

Has anyone successfully done this, or know which immigration office or visa agent can handle it?

Otherwise, if you had to renew your passport and your DTV was linked to your old passport - how did you fix this?!!

Any first-hand experience would really help me decide whether to try re-linking or re-apply from scratch.

Thanks in advance for any guidance 🙏

Hi, I applied for my 90-day report online, but it was rejected one day before the due date. I then went to immigration, and they told me to transfer my visa from my old passport to my new one first (since I had recently renewed my passport). It took me two days to complete all the required documents because I also needed a letter from my embassy. Yesterday, I finally went to transfer my visa, and I asked the 90-day counter to give me a token — even if it was the last one — so I could complete my 90-day report after the visa transfer. However, they told me to finish the transfer process first. I completed it around 5:30 p.m. Now my question is: will I be fined since it’s already been five days past the 90-day reporting deadline?

Good morning! what documenfs are required fo move the visa stamp from old passport to new passport in Phuket immigration?

Hi there, I would like to ask how other people have proceeded when after being granted their DTV visa, they have had to change their passport -for whatever the reason- and re-enter Thailand with the new one while their DTV visa is linked/granted to the older one. No theories or suggestions -just real scenarios of people that had actually done this, please. Cheers!

I arrived in Hua Hin on the 10th of October and went to Immigration at Bluport to transfer my retirement Visa stamps from my old passport to my recently renewed passport. At the desk I was told to go to the main immigration office just outside of town.

I asked her how long did I have before that had to be done, but unfortunately, I didn’t get a clear answer.

It would be helpful if somebody could give me an answer

— HELP: STOLEN PASSPORT: flying to bkk soon … who to contact?! Please read below —

I need some advice regarding my Muay Thai DTV (Soft Power) visa and my visa is digital (I have an online copy and a printed version - nothing was in my actual passport luckily)

I applied and was approved digitally in Hanoi, but my old Canadian passport was stolen recently and I now have a new passport. I need to update my passport number for my visa, and the Muay Thai school is updating the invitation letter for me.

Has anyone been in this situation before? Who should I contact, and what steps do I need to take to make sure my visa is recognized when I fly to Bangkok on November 5 from Madrid?

- I have a photo of my old passport

- a photo of my new passport

- police report

- all emails with the Canadian embassy regarding my stolen passport

- all DTV documents/pics digitally I used when applying in Hanoi and being approved

Are there any agents in Chiang Mai or elsewhere who can help with this process also?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated — I want to avoid any issues at immigration.

Thank you!
