steph83 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Hi, i have a non-immigrant-O (thai spouse), i did the extension on may 2023. My passport will expire on september 2023 so i renewed my passport this month (august 2023. Yesterday, i have been to the immigration office to show my new passport and to stamp it. I was surprised the officer told me that i have to do a new extension next month (september 2023) because my old passport was expired on septembre 2023. So, i must provide all the documents, pay 1900 THB again (i paid on may 2023 already), show 400.000 THB on my bank account, etc. Is it true that everyone must to do a new extension when the passport have been renewed ? Thanks for your help Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bigt3116 Posted August 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2023 Yes, because your last extension would have only been dated to the expiry date of your last passport 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryq Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 There was a time when they would stamp your permitted to stay date same as expiry date of passport . Then when you presented a new passport they would give you the outstanding balance of the one year. However that practice ceased years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post garygooner Posted August 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2023 You must be pretty casual & easy-going not noticing back in May when your extension will next expire. Also leaving it so late to get a new passport. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthainess Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Yes that is correct, the rule changed in 2013. I had the same problem last year and posted the story here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
