Embassy letter to update new passport at immigration.

[billzant]

Dear Consular Team,

 

I did my 90days today.

 

She noted that I was renewing my passport this year. She told me that I now require a letter from my embassy so that I can update visa details from my old passport to the new passport.

She showed me two letters from the Austrian embassy and Italian embassy as examples. The letters were very different. She stressed the need for headed notepaper and an embasssy stamp. I noted the letters also contained the  renewer's name and quoted both passport numbers.

Please can you advise how I will get this letter. I expect to be going to Bangkok to start renewing the passport at the end of May/beginning of June, and collecting the passport approx 11 weeks later.

 

Yours 

 

Bill Zanetti

You will automatically be given the Embassy letter when you pick up your new passport from the HMPO office at VFS in Bangkok or Chiang Mai.
