TheChiefJustice Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I have a question about using my new Thai passport for the first time. I recently obtained Thai citizenship. I got my ID card at the end of July. Soon after I obtained my ID card I applied for my Thai passport. Before it arrived, however, I had to go to Australia so I used my Oz passport and PR to leave and re-enter Thailand. Upon my return, I went to immigration to surrender my PR and to my local police station to surrender my red alien book. When I went to immigration I asked if they needed to cancel the visa/re-entry permit in my Oz passport etc and they said no. So now I have entered on my Oz passport but won't be using that passport to leave or enter Thailand again. So for my next departure I must use my Thai passport. I assume that doing so, given that my most recent entry was on my Oz passport, won't cause of problem. I'm probably concerned unnecessarily about this but would be interested to hear from any naturalized Thais about their experiences upon first obtaining their Thai passport.

samran Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 No idea CJ. My understanding (perhaps from dbrenn's thread) was that there was a cancellation of visa's etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
