Pungdo Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I've just been over to Jomtien Immigration to get my Marriage Ext stamp and came home a little bewildered, the extension isn't for 12 (11) months, it expires on the day my passport expires. I tried asking if when I have a new passport, do I go back and get a new stamp that will give me the balance, all I got was the usual blank look, then a smile, and some head nodding that instilled no confidence that was what would happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ubonjoe Posted March 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 29, 2021 It has been the rule since 2013 if your passport expires prior to day you extension ends it will only be issued to the day it expires. You then have to apply for a new extension prior to that day after getting a new passport. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pungdo Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 @ubonjoe, I believe that the visa I am extending will continue and be transferred to the new passport, is that correct ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After getting the new passport you can have your stamps transferred to the new one. Immigration will do a stamp with spaces on it for info about your old passport and the non-o visa you used to enter the country that allowed the 90 day permit to stay you have been extending.

Hopefully your experience can make sure people check time left on pp. Back to your situation. I'm still unsure what happens next. Obviously you obtain a new passport. Do you then apply for another new extension prior to you current extension expires. (pre Oct 25). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulbrow Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Personally, I always get a new passport at least 6 months before expiration as most country's require a minimum of 6 months remaining on a passport to issue any visas.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind that Oz passports are valid for 10 years. I never understand why people leave it till last year to obtain a new one. Can't be a cost saving thing surely.

If you do not have enough validity your extension will only be done to the day passport expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to suggest the same thing. I learned that when I renewed my last time in 2013. I was inquiring at my embassy because I didn't want to get caught out on a Visa app someplace. It made a lot of sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
