    I.O told you a load of rubbish.

    Of course you can change from one to another.

    Just apply for the extension for the other reason.

     

    Maybe you are using a rogue offic.

     

    maybe Rubbish..... but thats the rules in pathum thani immigration.

    wasn't my idea to spend 8k on a over night trip to Vientiane to get a new Non o imm based on marriage.

    I did start a topic on here about my issues to get my extension, maybe you would like to take a look

  3. I went to my local immigration office few weeks ago for my extension renewal.

     I'm on a retirement extension right now but I wanted to change over to a  marriage extension.

    Immigration would not let to swap over my extension, IO told me I had to leave Thailand and get a new fresh Non o imm based on marriage then after 45 days I could do a marriage extension.

    I booked a appointment at Vientiane and got myself a Non o imm based on marriage.

    From your previous thread I was under the impression you originally entered Thailand on a 30 visa exempt then arranged (via an agent in Pattaya) to extend that and you received an extra 15 months, which expires in September. 

     

    The agent didn't get a you 15 month non O visa in Pattaya, what he did was get a 90 day NON O VISA followed by a one year EXTENSION OF STAY based on retirement.

     

    Most of us stay long term in Thailand by annually renewing our extension of stay. To qualify for an extension we must initially apply with a valid non O VISA and then continually renew the permission to stay with annual extensions. That's why the agent got your 90 day non O first then acquiring your one year extension.

     

    Your actual 90 day VISA expired after those 90 days but you were allowed to remain in Thailand by virtue of being issued with that one year extension of stay. Normally you would just renew your extension but, because there was an anomaly with the Pattaya extension, Pathom Thani wouldn't let you renew it. They have allowed it to run its course but have said you must now exit Thailand to get a new non O visa and start the process again.

     

    So, at the moment you don't have a valid visa and your extension will expire when you exit Thailand. You won't have any problem obtaining another nonO VISA from a neighbouring country (Laos?).

    Thank you much appreciated for you reply. You expanded my issue far better I can...
