Hi. My child is on an Ed visa and I’m on Non-O. We both just got new passports. I understand we need to go to the immigration office to transfer our current visa extensions and multiple re-entry permits form the old passports to the new passports.

First question: does my son need to be present at the immigration office to do this or can I do this for him?

Second question: does anyone have any experience doing this in Samui? How long does it take? Can it be done in one morning before they break for lunch?

Third question - is there a fee (I assume so) and, if so, how much?

Thanks in advance.

I don't recall there being a fee but you may like to check the pinned topic at the top of the page as the template found there proved useful when I did it. Samui IO are quiet and user friendly at the moment so you should be ok. If your son can go too it's probably best if he does; TIT an' all that! ????

Be sure to park BEHIND the building where parking is free and ample.

Last time five years ago they wanted 500 baht, but that was in the old office.
