A question for those more knowledgeable than myself. After the 60 day extension mentioned in this article, would it be possible to depart to a nearby country and then return with an extension?

Thanks Sheryl - I always look for your replies to medicinal questions. As Ubon Joe was the guru for Immigration queries, your responses are what I seek out for my Thai medicinal advice.

I Take NIFEdipine Extended Release Tablets 30 mg. Can these be purchased in Thailand either OTC, or with a doctors prescription?

Do they have the earlier part where he said "Watch this, hold my beer"? You may have to be a redneck to understand.😁

I thought the last McDonald's left Russia in 2022. Many of the these seem to be based on labor costs, while others appear to be just jacking up the price to increase their profits.

I had to go to the "Full Story" to determine if the uniform was being worn by a male, or female. I'm still wondering.

I recently returned from six months in Thailand. I started with a 90 day based on marriage, then extended that for 60 days at my local immigration office. As that 60 days was nearing completion, the wife and I spent the day in Laos and I returned with another 30 day extension. That was as long as we were planning to stay, so we didn't apply for a tourist visa in Savannakhet.

My wife does not have a Thai passport. She was given a 1 year at the local immigration office since she did not have to show funds in the bank. We only planned on being here for 6 months, therefore I did not want to transfer the funds required to facilitate a 1 year. We are covered under Tricare for Life in the US and 6 months is about all the time we plan to be away from our doctors

I have never before received nor applied for a 30 day extension. My previous 9 entries to Thailand were based on Non O marriage and had a 1 year approval from the Thai Embassy before arrival. We always stayed 9 months, or less and never had a 30 day extension at the border. I did have a 60 day extension to my 90 day Non O at the local immigration office this time around. The wife, based on dual citizenship, was given a 1 year at that time. It's looking like I'll will be going to Mukdahan for an extension. Thanks

We have not been on any border runs this year. Arrived on April 28 on 90 day marriage, then did a 60 day extension. We only want to go into Laos at the nearest location that will fulfill the requirement to renew of permission to stay for 30 more days. We are US citizens. Thanks

I need 30 more days in Thailand before my flight next month. I have a driver to take me to the border, but he wants to take me to the border Pakse instead of Mukdahan. If I remember correctly, you only get 14 days at Pakse. However, I cannot find that information at this time. I am on a 90 day based on marriage with a 60 day extension already. Can I get a 30 day visa free at Pakse. Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I signed so many forms when doing the extension that I don't know about the TM47. I will download the forms and we will stop by immigration next week to make sure.

I posted a couple of months ago that my local immigration office did not appear to be willing to grant to my wife and I a 60 day Non O extension. We went in last week to the same office to ask for the extensions for me and my Thai born wife. Things could not have gone better. They asked for our passports, our orginal visa approval letters, 1 photo for each of us, my wife's Thai ID, our marriage license, and my wife's Blue Book. One officer started working on my extension and another on my wife's. In about 10-15 minutes we had to sign all the paperwork they created. We received my 60 day stamp and my wife got a 1 year extension, paid our 1900 baht each and left with a smile. My question now is: Does the date we were granted the 60 day extension start a new 90 day reporting period, or do we count from the original arrival date? I know this is a little long, but I wanted to correct my original post which may not have shown the local immigration office in a favorable light. They could not have been more professional and friendly.
