Koh Samui Immigration - Transferring visa/extension stamps to new passport

[TerraplaneGuy]

Has anyone done this recently?   I'm on a retirement extension of stay (based on a non-OA visa) and need the stamps, including multiple re-entry permit, transferred to my new passport.

 

A few questions:

 

1. Is it a same-day, walk-in procedure, or do you have to leave your passport and pick it up another day/week?

2. Any special form to fill out?

3. Apart from old and new passports, any other documents needed?  I hear that at Chaeng Wattana (Bangkok) they now require you to update and copy your bank book for this purpose.

For up-to-date info it might be best to ask at the registration on the ground floor.

 

It is almost 9 years since I did a visa stamp transfer – soon due again later this year – nothing was needed apart from old and new passports. If your embassy supply a letter with the new passport then that shall also be handed over. I was charged a fee of 500 baht – Okay for me – but some people states that there is no official fee for that service; I however won't ague with Samui Immigration about a relative small fee.

Do you recall whether  you got it done same day or had to come back the following week for pickup?
