I just renewed my passport and went to Chiang Mai Immigration to do a visa transfer. The immigration officer advised that I don’t need to do it—instead, I just need to leave the country when it is time, return, and present both passports on arrival. Immigration will then stamp my new passport.

I was also advised to email the DTV issuing authority in Hanoi to update my new passport number in my current(DTV).

Has anyone had a similar experience recently? I’ve heard different procedures in the past, so would really appreciate hearing how it worked for others—especially as on-the-ground policies seem to be evolving.

Thank you!

I have renewed my passport, I have a Thai wife 1 year extension. My old passport is not out of date but at extension time there would be only 6 months validity, hence the early passport renewal. My question, am I obliged to swap stamps immediately or can I do that at my ease?

Hi everyone, I am currently staying in Thailand on a DTV. I just recently renewed my passport and got a new book here in Thailand.

My question is: Do I need to visit the Immigration office to transfer my DTV stamp from the old passport to the new one? If so, what documents are required for the transfer?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello my dtv visa is still valid, but my previous passport expired, so I returned to my home country. If I obtain a new passport, will I be able to travel back to Bangkok using my existing visa? Thank you

Hello, just a quick question, my yearly marriage visa expires in July and my uk 🇬🇧 passport expires in October. According to Google AI it says that when I renew my visa my passport must have a minimum of 6 months left. Is this correct information. ? Thanks in advance of any information given.

I think I have a problem. My passport got damaged by water and I now have to go to my

embassy in Bangkok to get a new one. Entry stamp and extension of stay can't be read. So what shall I do? I have a Thai drivers license which may let my fly domestically (?) Is this ok? Can I use that? During covid I had to take a taxi from Udon Thani to Bangkok when I returned to my home country (no flights at the moment) - wouldn't want that again. Any suggestions? Thanks.
