I recently received my new US passport along with my old US passport from the US Embassy in Bangkok

 

Before my old US passports were stamped with the word CANCELLED. (I believe this was done by the US Embassy – not by Thai immigration).

 

Just noticed the old passport returned to me this time is not stamped with the word CANCELLED (it does have two holes punched out on the bottom of the passbook).

 

Is my old US passport supposed to be stamped with the word CANCELLED by the Bangkok US Embassy?

 

Did someone at the Bangkok Embassy forget to stamp my passport CANCELLED or is it now common practice to not stamp an old passport with the word CANCELLED?

 

For those that had your old passport returned by the US Embassy Bangkok – was your old passport stamped CANCELLED?

 

I have a BOI LTR Visa and need to go to Bangkok to get my stamps transferred to my new passport.

 

Is this going to be a problem for me?

 

I would hate to make a long trip and have an issue getting my visa stamps transferred to my new passport - if my old passport is not stamped CANCELLED.

 

Thank you in advance for any help with this matter.

Not directly answering you question however I recently renewed my Australian pp.

The online process does not require the old passport to be included with application.

My old pp is unmarked.

When I subsequently attended CW for transfer of stamps, there was zero issue with this.

A stamp was placed in old pp with notation of new pp # etc.

Thai Immigration have no authority to stamp Cancelled in your US Passport.
