This is not the case if you were on extension based upon marriage but you didn't cancel it the day of divorce. You can apply for another type of extension, for example retirement extension, even if you didn't cancel the previous extension based upon marriage A friend of mine had an extension based upon marriage but he got divorced and exited Thailand without cancel the extension at the immigration office. He came back with a tourist visa and then he applied for a retirement extension. No issues at all

So this is a case only for education and work extensions? No problem if you want to apply for marriage extension or retirement extensions?

But if the education extension is expired he can apply for other type of visa and extensions. Like in the case of marriage visas or retirement visa. When it's expired is automatically invalid anyway Or maybe it is a different case for education visa/extensions? It must be cancelled before applying for other type of visas or extensions?

Not true. A friend of mine was married to a Thai but he got divorced and he remained in Thailand without cancel the extension based upon marriage. He left the country before the expiration of the extension and months later he got other type of visa and extension with no issues at all

but if you pay more money it might last forever

Just exit the country and then come back again. Many foreigners are paying visa agencies just to get a DTV to stay long term

A friend of mine told me that you should add the last country that bring you to thailand on the country where you boarded. Immigration don't care if you have started to fly from your country of origin. So if you have a layover to another airport, just add the connecting flight that will bring you to thailand

I always knew that is better to avoid extending DTV at immigration office. The best thing is to do a border bounce or just fly to another asian country and then come back. Easy easy! No stress

So if for example you start to fly from UK, you should add UK on the country where you boarded, while you should add the connecting flight to Thailand as flight number, does it look fine like that?

It's possible to add 2 flights number on the tdac flight number info? If the flight to Thailand has also one connecting flight before the arrival into the country. Just to avoid possible issues at the immigration

it's just a free exemption stamp, not a tourist visa. And obtaining a tourist visa in your country is a proper visa by the way. I don't understand why you should be denied entry if you come back with a tourist visa every 6 months for example

I said many times, just avoid female officers. They are bipolar and always moody

Then just use the safe entry or try to stay out of Thailand for some months and then come back again

Just use the safe entry at Bangkok airport and problem solved. You can come back as many times as you want with the safe entry It's just about pay more, make them happy and no issues

Always these female officers make trouble, nothing new. Just use safe entry and problem solved. Easy Better avoid to come back to Thailand after just a few days out of the country, but no issues with the safe entry service
