pixelaoffy Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I have retirement extension and it valid until expiry date of passport in 2022. If I leave country and get anew passport but the old one still has the valid visa extension , and the old passport has not expired .I have been told by a visa agent that the visa is still valid and can still enter Thailand with new passport and the valid visa in old passport ( not expired). And can get it transferred when back in Thailand. Hope you understand and the visa experts mod will advise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 You can enter the country by showing both passports to use your re-entry permit in the old passport. They will stamp you into the country in your new passport. After entering the country you will need to go to immigration to have your stamps transferred. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A e-entry permit is issued for and is valid for the length of your current extension of stay. Without a re-entry permit you would lose your extension and be stamped in with a visa exempt entry.

I thought a re entry could have a shorter time period than the date of extension or visa expiry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
