Must be because you work in bkk. In the provinces it needs to be send to HQ, hence 30 days.

Extension also exists for non immigrant business? I'm not on marriage visa.

But is the officer,(if asked kindly) flexible (has authority) to adjust the report back date for under consideration a few days, so it won't precisely hit the days while out of country?

Is the immigration office flexible for a few days when it comes to the "under consideration" stamp, since at the end of 30 days under consideration period, I need to leave thailand for a few days, not that the day coincidences while I'm out. My now: Visa is non immigrant B.

Yes new passport

Anybody knows what NON-RE l, means see attached image?

My annual Visa expires 1th July. (non immigrant b) I have a flight out of Thailand 5 July. Two questions: Submission prior to expiration date How many days/months prior to VISA expiration date(1 July) is it possible to submit all documents to immigration? As it normally takes in my case a few weeks to get extension granted. Normally I submitted all documents at expiration day, which i cant make my flight. Extension Would it be possible to extend current expiration (1th July) 1 or 2 months and then complete the process upon return?
