FATNAPPY Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 My UK passport is full and I have to get a new one, I have a non o visa. I am going to embassy in Bkk next week to apply for a new one. Will I have to go to Thai Immigration to transfer the o visa or will they accept the old passport as proof of visa. The visa is only valid untill the end of may. I have already booked my flight to return to UK to renew my visa. Any experiences or advice would be much appreciated....Thanks in advance...

When you give the Embassy your old passport you will fold over the page with the Visa on. They cut the corners of the pages so the one you folded will still be uncut and valid. (Or they did when I changed) Immigration will not transfer Visas only permition to stay stamps. So carry both passports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
