bangkokbonecollector Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 My one year extension (based on taking care of my daughter non-immi o) will finish in early April but I have a flight at the end of May. Are you able to get a 60day extension at the end of the 1 year extension? If not what else could i do other than pay the overstay of 40days! Thanks for your help.

fishtank Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 You can get 60 days to visit your daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just to confirm, I have been in the country for the last year on the 1 year extension and that ends in April. So I can just go to my local Immigration office and request to extent for 60days? Thank you very much for your help, greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you can unless you have applied for the 60 day extension previously to visit your child since your last entry with visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I never did that, entered last January from a holiday in Nam but because of Covid had to wait until September 2020 to get my extensions done. I was only given till April! which is strange and something I might query as I have read elsewhere all long term extensions given last September should have been for a year. Anyways, thanks for your help, greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question for Ubon Joe: Does that one time 60 day extension you take for marriage or child get renewed when you leave the Kingdom and come back? In other words, you get to use that extension only one time while in the Kingdom, but when you go out and come back that gets another one time renewal?

If you were here for years and got one you could not get another one until you entered the country with a visa. Using a re-entry permit does not count as new entry since it is not a new entry with a visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is an important distinction... you do not get another 60 day extension use with an existing VISA and re-entry permit. Must have a new VISA, not an existing one. Do you know why this is?

If on extensions you probably would not have a valid visa to use since it would of expired already. If on a multiple entry visa you could get a 60 day extension for one of the permits to stay from it leave the country and re-enter using the visa and get another 60 day extension What I meant by new visa entry was a new permit to stay in the country that could be from a visa or visa exempt, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still not clear. So for example I entered on a 90 day Non-Immigrant O based upon marriage. I used a 60 day extension while in the Kingdom and give time to complete my one year extension based upon marriage. Now... if I obtain a re-entry permit, go out of the Kingdom and come back within my current one year extension, do I get granted another 60 day extension use should I need it?

You could not apply for another 60 day extension if you go a re-entry permit the left and reentered the country since you would still have the same permit to stay from a visa from long ago. You have been extending the same permit to stay and would need a entirely new one from a visa or visa exempt entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
