A question regarding the new ‘TDAC’ form which has to be filled in before entry.
I am currently in the Netherlands to obtain a new passport.
I am leaving for Thailand again at the end of the week but have doubts about which passport number I should fill in on the form, as my retirement-extension is in the old passport.
For this reason, I am afraid that if I fill in the new passport number, the retirement extension will not be seen and I will therefore be marked as a tourist.
Does anyone have experience with this?

New passport 100%. Your old one will be invalid for travel but you'll still enter on the visa it contains.(Presumably you have a Re-entry permit?)

Thanks for the answer, yes I have a multiple-entry.

On arrival in Thailand, you must give the immigration official not only your new passport, but also your old passport and tell the official that the old passport has your valid re-entry permit in it.

 

The TDAC does not  serve as the basis on which the official determines the type and length of permission to stay in Thailand.
