pwllgrgn Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hi Does anyone know if a person applies for a Non Immigration O-A visa (Longstay/retirement)and their spouse applies for the Dependants Visa, does the person holding the dependants visa have to do visa runs every 90 days until they are 50?

Mahout Angrit Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Does anyone know if a person applies for a Non Immigration O-A visa (Longstay/retirement)and their spouse applies for the Dependants Visa, does the person holding the dependants visa have to do visa runs every 90 days until they are 50? Any alien who stays in thailand for whatever the reason has to have a valid, within date, permit to remain in the country. If the stamp in your passport giving you permission to stay in the country is about to expire then you must do something to renew the permission. If that means a visa run then thats what you must do.

lopburi3 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I believe the visa is extended to match that of the sponsor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Even if you both have an extension for 1 year, you still have to report to Immigration to confirm your address every 90 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwllgrgn Posted January 12, 2007 Author Share Posted January 12, 2007 Hi Thanks for all the answers. I posted this thread because I was interested to know what the situation with the dependants visa is, as I will be appyling for the 'retirement/longstay' visa when we arrive sometime in 2007 and my husband who is not yet 50 was thinking about the dependants visa. I was hoping that the dependants visa was valid for 12 months without doing a visa run and renewable every 12 months like the 'retirement/longstay' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
