Transfer of Multiple Entry Visa

[Raram28]

My passport expires in August of next year, which means I have to renew my passport in Jan of Feb of next year. I have a multiple entry visa for Thailand. I have been working in Thailand for the past 5 years. 

 

Question - I will exit the country to renew my passport and would be entering Thailand with my new passport. Do I present both my old and new passport to the Immigration, get my entry stamp and then get the multiple entry visa transferred to my new passport? Or, do I have to get something done before I leave the country to get my passport renewed?

 

Thank you very much

If you have a multiple entry visa issued by a embassy or consulate you will have to use both passports on entry to the country every time you enter the country until the visa expires. Visa cannot be transferred.

There is nothing you need to do before leaving the country.
