that's exactly what I meant. If you have retirement stamp issued from Pattaya, then moved to Phuket, once the Pattaya stamp is expired you cannot renew it like you used to at Phuket. You might have to leave and come back in and re-start the process. If they find out you spent more time elsewhere in thailand rather than your registered address for the visa, you could be fined too, esp, retirement visa.
