Will need to tackle this task soon when my passport arrives. How is it done? Is there a charge?

Take both passports down to immigration in Soi 5 and explain you have new one, they transfer permission to stay no charge.

There is no charge but photo copies of old and new will be required and a one page form will have to be filled out.

Thanks Lop!

Ask your Embassy to draft a letter asking Immigration to transfer your old visas to your new passport.

When I received a new passport, the letter was automatically provided to me at no charge. I simply handed both the new and the old passports with the accompanying letter to the immigration official at my next 90-day check-in. He grunted, began furiously stamping, and smiled at me when he was finished.

You do not mention your nationality, so you make it difficult for your compatriots to comment on the specific policies of your Embassy here in the Kingdom.

Is that letter necessary? It will be for my Filipino GF.

Letter not necessary, at least not in BKK that is. Requirements say submit "if available".

Many embassies have stopped issuing the letters.
