Renewing O visa based on marriage

[jinky]

Confirmation required.

im about to renew my O visa based on marriage, its due to be renewed on Nov 12th but I've to leave Thailand at the end of Oct on business, so could I get a single entry visa before leaving Thailand and start the renewing process when I return in Dec 4th.

 

thanks for any advice.

Go in and and ask your immigration office if you can renew early. I think you can do the renewal 15 days before your due date.

No, you can not!!!

The re-entry permission will expire together with your permission of stay on Nov 12.

Do you mean an extension based on marriage?

OP, you dont renew or get a marriage visa inside Thailand, so its a little unclear what you are talking about.

Are you talking about a 90 day O visa, or a yearly extension based on marriage?

A 90 day O marriage visa cannot be extended, renewed or issued inside Thailand.. you can get another extension of stay.

 

As mentioned above, any re-entry permit (its not a visa) will expire the same time as a current extension of stay (also not a visa).

 

As it stands, you dont have enough time to do and get back a marriage extension , so it appears you may need to get another O visa outside Thailand and start again.

Ok gents maybe I worded this badly, I have multiple entry permit based on marriage, is it possible to get an extension to the permit and renew my multiple entry permit during the extension period, I believe this is possible just want to confirm this, thanks in advance.

You can apply for a new extension up to 30 days or 45 days at some office before the current one expires.

When you apply for a one year extension of stay at immigration they will do a under consideration stamp with a report back date on it. You can get a single re-entry permit that will be valid up to that report back date.

After you get the one year extension on the report back date is when you can apply for a multiple re-entry permit.

Sorry, but what are you talking about? Where are you allowed only 15 days before expiry to renew an annual extension?  And if he's actually talking about a visa, which seems unlikely, they can't be renewed at all.

If you mean a re - entry permit, it's tied to your current permission/extension of stay.  As UJ said, if you apply for a new annual extension based on marriage, you'll be given an under consideration stamp and report back date. If you want a re-entry permit while under consideration, it will only be valid up to the report back date for your annual extension.

This gets more confusing with every reply :)

 

Multi entry permit ?? 30 days, 15 days ?

 

OP are you on a multi entry visa based on marriage (Non Imm O) or are you on an extension of stay with a multi re-entry permit ??

It's sort of hilarious because in many threads where this sort of confusion arises, someone will insist that " everyone knows what he means," even though it's obviously impossible to be certain what he means or what some responders mean.
