Well I sincerely hope all other members have better success than my wife had this afternoon. First the positive successfully registered with the new system and up and running. After this my wife successfully entered our address and this was accepted by the system before logging out, however after logging out and logging in again the address that was in the system has mysteriously dissappeared. So frustrating.

I forgot to mention when I recently went to my local immigration office to get my last entry stamp from 2019 (Suvarnabhumi Airport) and my latest Visa Extension (done at my local Immigration office) in my old cancelled passport into my new passport they said sorry we cannot do this as Thai Elite have to do this. However fortunately after my calling Thai Elite and the staff explaining to my local Immigration office they did transfer the stamps without any problems. My new online TM30 is linked to my new passport on the day I received it and also my latest 90 day report (done at my local immigration office), my TM6 is linked to my old passport.

I stay in Thailand on Thai Elite 5 Year PE Visa's and this serves my needs very well. Later this month I will be going to Chang Wattana Immigration together with Thai Elite personnel to get my 2nd Thai Elite 5 Year PE Visa affixed in my recently renewed UK Passport. My first Thai Elite 5 Year PE Visa was affixed in my old now cancelled UK passport at Suvarnabhumi Airport. If there are any members here who have had there Thai Elite Visa's affixed in there renewed passports could you kindly share your experiences here as to how it went and what documents you had to provide. I have been requested to provide: 1. Both passport (old & new) 2. TM.6 (The departure card) 3. The receipt for Notification of Residence (TM. 30) 4. The receipt of notification of 90-days reporting 5. The arrival stamp in new passport once he moved it at the immigration Many thanks in advance.

So glad I was guided to get a 15 year Thai Elite Membership extension early this year for 500000THB until end 2039.

The last time I used the online TM30 Application (registered in my wife name and at our home address in Udonthani) was in in 2019 when I arrived back in Thailand at Suvarnabhumi Airport. I have been informed that as I will be getting my new renewed Passport on 15th August that I will need to do a new online TM30 that links to my new renewed Passport. I have some questions related to the required information in the TM30 Application and hope that some members can provide correct information: Check-out Date (see screenshot attached).........What date should I use? TM6 No. (see screenshot attached)............ I only have my old TM6 from 2019 which refers to my old Passport; do I use this one or can I leave this blank? Date of Arrival (see screenshot attached)..........What date should I use? Port of Entry (see screenshot attached)........... This is all in Thai and the first entry is Immigration at Suvarnabhumi Airport where I last arrived in 2019 should I use this? Relation (see screenshot attached).........As the TM30 Application is registered in my wifes name should she write my Husband in Thai here? Many thanks in advance for any help.

I stay in Thailand on a Thai Elite 5 Year Visa and this type of Visa serves my needs perfectly. I have recently renewed my British Passport and this will be collected at VFS in Bangkok on the 15th August and I am planning to get my latest Visa Extension Stamp in my old Passport transfered to my New Passport on the 29th August at Udonthani Immigration. On the 20th September I have booked an appointment at Chang Wattana through Thai Elite to get my new Thai Elite 5 Year Visa put in my New Passport as my local Immigration Office is unable to do this. My next 90 Day Report is due 16 September and my question is when you get a New Passport does the 90 Day Report from the old Passport also follow the New Passport; or will I get a new 90 Day Report when I get my latest Visa Extension Stamp in my old Passport transfered to my New Passport on the 29th August at Udonthani Immigration. Many thanks in advance for any help.

This is no longer required by Immigration please see attachment. Information_Note_Visa_transfer_to_new_passport.pdf

Fully agree; however we made the most of it by having a short holiday in Bangkok in our favourite Hotel.

The British Passport Office are quoting 11 weeks to renew a British Passport for somebody living in Thailand like myself. I have some good news regarding the renewal of my British Passport as it only took 4 weeks with the chain of events listed below: I booked an appointment at VFS Bangkok on 23.06 2023 and my application was sent to the UK the same day My Thai Credit Card was charged on 27.06.2023 My new Passport arrived back at VFS Bangkok on 21.07.2023 and will be collected shortly I experienced very good service at VFS Bangkok and am very grateful for a speedy process. I hope all other relevant Members have similar very good service.

I have very recently applied to renew my UK Passport through the VFS Office in Bangkok and the renewal process at the VFS Office functioned perfectly. As we live in Udonthani I had origonally intended to use a Visa Agent to avoid travelling to Bangkok but I changed my mind at the last minute. I have heard conflicting reports that a Certified Letter from the British Embassy is required by Thai Immigration for the transfer of stamps from the old Passport to the new Passport so to be on the safe side I contacted the British Embassy about this. The British Embassy have confirmed that since 25.05.2023 this is no longer a requirement. I have attached an Information Note last updated 01 June 2023 from the British Embassy confirming that Thai Immigration are able to transfer stamps from the old Passport to the new Passport without a Certified Letter. The Information Note is in both English and Thai language. I am posting this to help other UK Passport holders who may be interested in this. Information_Note_Visa_transfer_to_new_passport.pdf
