Hi, I have a DTV visa, however my passport is due to expire within 1 year. So, I was thinking of getting the passport renewed.

But I'm worried would it cause any problems as I haven't used the visa yet, or carrying the blank new passport with the old one suffice.

Thanks 😊

My friend apply for one year visa in Thailand last December.

But his passport expired inext July.

is enough to come Thailand with new passport and old one. And they switch one year stamp to new passport?

What is the situation if you have a 12 month 'non o' visa (retirement), have left Thailand on exit/re-entry and you are back in the UK and your passport expiry date is during the time back in the UK - are visas and exit/ reentry stamps transferred to a new passport? Are you able go keep old passport with visa and stamps in? I am unsufe of the process, any advice/experiences? ✍

I’m applying for the DTV, but my passport (to be stamped, if visa is approved) expires in one year. How does that work, do you just get a new stamp in one of your quarterly visits to immigration? Thanks.

Thanks for the helpful comments.

I eventually found the UK passport information online.

For Thailand the extra months carry over.

For travel in Eu its 10 years from date of issue.

It may seem like a stupid question......but....when does my passport finish for Travel to Thailand.

I saw something on the news a few weeks ago about expiry dates.

I'm sure it mentioned that uk passports were now only valid for 10 years on date of issue.

However I'm not sure if that was just to go to EU.

I'm aware that I need to have 6 months left when I travel, but not sure now if my passport expires July 26 or April 27.

This group is always useful, as usual! We are currently in Thailand thanks to an education visa and a guardian visa. However, due to the expiration date of the guardian's passport, there is a difference in the visa expiration date compared to the student's. I would appreciate any guidance on how to catch up on the visa duration and ensure that both have the same visa duration. Many thanks!!

Hi there, is it still the case that if I renew my passport in my home country, I can re-enter Thailand by showing the Non-Immigrant B Visa and Re-Entry Permit in my old passport? Also I may be out of Thailand for 3 months before I re-enter with the new passport, is there a time frame? My visa and re-entry stamp will still be valid until later in the year. Thanks for your help

If I get DTV, than later on, I renew my passport, how do I secure the value of Visa if it's tied to the original passport number?

Hi - I have a couple questions regarding my Destination Thailand Visa as my US passport is expiring in January 2026.

-Is my understanding correct that I will need to show my new passport along with the old passport (or copy of old passport) that the DTV was approved for? Is there a way to transfer the DTV to the new passport?

-When entering Thailand with the DTV, will they reject entry if my old passport has less than 6 months remaining (I’m working on renewing my passport, but unsure how long it will take)?

Thanks in advance.

Don't get your DTV and then renew your passport, or you are back to square one.
