I feel embarrassed and know what the answer is probably going to be... But, I got over-excited and nervous when applying and made a mistake by one day on the expiration of my passport. I was rejected, and was hoping for a miracle that I could somehow correct the mistake. Any advice, or am I out of luck and need to start all over?

A strange thing has happened during my December visit to Chonburi Immigtation. I was there with my wfe to do the yearly extension due to marriage. Because my Passport expires this August, they said only an 8 month extension is allowed and then after the new passport comes in start again.

Then they said come back January 14. Not sure why but came back and they stamped Jan. 15 on the page and above it a large stamp saying good until August 28 this year.

There was no 90-day page usually accompanied with it. I tried calling yesterday but no answer so I'm off today there, but any reason why this happened?

I have a 5-year visa, but my passport will expire before the visa does. Has anyone successfully transferred their visa to a new passport without having to carry two passports?

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.

Hello everyone,

I got my DTV visa in HCM in 7 days.

I still have two questions:

If I want to leave the country, do I need to go to immigration first?

My passport expires in 3 years — do you know what I should do, since my 5-year DTV is linked to my passport?

Thanks for all your advices

Question to the B-Visa holders...

I got my B-Visa new now but only for 9 months because my passport expires in March 2026.

Last time, when I had to get a new passport, I got my visa for 1 year and then they just transferred the visa from the old to the new passport.

Has anyone of you experienced that, too or know any source (link) where I can find a clear information about it?

I am really wondering if it was correct what they did or just another kind of money making of immigration or my accounting office which is doing my visa?

Hello folks ...

My current Thai wife visa extension of stay is permitted up to 2 August 2025.

My current US passport expires in May 2026.

Would you confirm that I can apply for my visa extension with my current passport, however, the extension of stay will be permitted up to my passport expiration date in May 2026?

Thank you kindly ...

Hello, I am planning to apply for a DTV visa soon. However, my passport expires in a little over 3 years.

My question is: will it be possible to transfer a DTV visa to the new passport? Whether it is an e-visa or a visa affixed to the passport by the embassy?

Indeed, I read on a Thai embassy website that DTV e-visas are not transferable to a new passport. If this is not the case, I should think about applying for a new passport before applying for the DTV.

Thank you for your information if you have any 🙏

Asking a question that is not particular to DTV but on a non O visa . Can someone please advise . My passport expires in June 2026 , and what will happen to a visa that is stamped in my passport which will still be valid ? Can the visa be transferred to my new passport? I have read that the visa lapses with the old passport.. thank you everyone
