It didn't get as far as having to prove my marriage. The first thing that was checked was the copy of my passport - when the lady saw my Non Imm B visa it was a No from there.

I realise that not many people go for the Non Imm B + 60 day extension, but in my particular case it would have solved a problem. My wife asked and re-asked the lady examining the documents, but the answer was still No.

The explanation was that as I have a work permit then my reason for stay shouldn't be visiting my wife. I should instead get the necessary documents from the company in order and apply for a 1 year extension of stay instead.

I probably caught the wrong person on the wrong day, but for me at least, on that particular day, the answer was No.

Yes, and every conceivable document you could imagine. The first person we spoke to went to the back of the cubicle to check with their superior and it was a definite no.

I've just finished at Immigration Division 1 in Bangkok. They definitely don't extend Non Imm B Visas for a period of 60 days for the purpose of visiting your Thai wife.

The best they could offer was a 7 day extension.

Thank you for you help.

Hi

I have a single entry non immigrant B visa (valid for 90 days). I am also married to a Thai.

Can I extend my visa for 60 days for the purpose of visiting my wife?

If I can, what documents would I have to provide for immigration?

Thank you.
