They should give you a 60 day extension to visit your wife regardless of the category of Non Immigrant visa you have.

Awesome, thanks! And just to confirm, this 60 days extension isn't subject to the 40,000/mth or 400,000/bank baht financial requirements like the marriage visa, right? It's gonna take some time to sort the financial stuff out.

That's really really good to hear. Thank you!!!

I posted before about extending a non-O visa based on marriage (without a work permit) but I just realized I was wrong. My visa is a non-B visa. I'm going to immigration tomorrow so this is pretty urgent. Is it possible to extend this non-B visa based on marriage, or any other way to extend it? I don't have a work permit, just a non-B visa that's expiring tomorrow and a wife and baby at home. Anything I can do aside from doing a border run? Thanks!

They can get the same 60 extension as the parent of a Thai.

 

They would need the original & copy of the birth certificate, and a copy of the child’s house registration book (Tabian Baan.

Thanks!! That's really good news.

The requirements may vary between offices, but in general you’ll need;

 

• Original marriage certificate plus signed copy.
• Signed copies of wife's ID and Tabien Baan.
• Signed copies of your passport pages: ID page, visa, entry stamp, departure card.
• 1 x photo 6 x 4.
• Maybe they will want form TM30. This is the form used by the Owner/House-master to report that you are staying with them.

Your wife will need to go with you when you apply.

Thanks! Another person at this company who is in the same situation isn’t married, but has a child from a Thai mother. Do you know what is required for him to get the extension? I’m trying to finding it online but can’t get a concise list. Thank you

You can’t extend for tourism. But if you are the spouse of parent of a Thai you could extend for 60 days for 1,900 baht.

Oh really? I’m the husband of a Thai and new parent of a Thai baby. Thank you! I’ll search for the requirements.

I have a non-o Visa from Hong Kong so I could get a work permit and business visa. The company is taking too long and the visa is almost expired. Can I extend this visa at the immigration office like you can with tourist visas for 1,900 baht?

I went to the office and one thing they told me which isn't clear in this post is that only 1 parent can get this benefit, not both, even if you both have social insurance.

Thanks for this information!

That depends upon the immigration office he has to use. There is no reason he should be extend his 90 day entry from the non-b visa.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. The school said I should go to Laos to get the education visa. So it sounds like there's no problem with getting the ed visa during the last 90 day entry of my non-b visa, even though the Enter Before date is passed. Right?

My current visa is a 1 year non-b multiple entry. The Enter Before date is coming up in about a week. If I leave Thailand and come back before the Enter Before date, I will get 90 days more stay. I plan on studying Thai so my next visa will be an Education visa. Even though my visa will be expired, can I apply for the Education visa before the 90 days are up? Or do I need to get the Education visa before the Enter Before date?
