Transferring work visa to a renewed passport

Tet1

Does anyone know the procedure for what to do when one got the renewed passport due to no more blank spaces in the old passport, but the work visa is in the old passport. Do you need to transfer visa to a new passport or just carrying two passports is enough. Again, work visa not any other one. I know about tourist visa but it seems like the work visa has different requirements

The procedure is simple.

They will issue you a new passport. You must now take the old passport (containing your visa stamp) and the new passport when clearing customs. You will need to give both to the customs officer.
