ubonjoe Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Yes you can get one to keep the remainder of the 60 days it allows and/or the 30 day extension valid when entering the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritTim Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 It is possible to get a re-entry permit to protect any permission to stay across a trip outside Thailand. however, make sure you understand that it does not stop the clock. If your permission to stay expires June 10th, and you leave Thailand with a re-entry permit, returning a week later, your permission to stay still expires June 10th.

I hadn't realised this was possible - does that also apply to a Non O? I'm not sure that I will be able to get a 12 month Multi at the moment and I'm expecting to be told (on one of my forthcoming trips) to 'get a visa'. I can only get a single entry Non O in the UK but if a re-entry pass can be used, I can probably get 2 visits out of a single entry Non O as long as I get the timing right. The procedure is to either visit my local immigration or get a re-entry permit at the airport when I leave - correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could even use one for a 60 day extension to visit your wife combined with the remainder of the 90 day entry from a non-o visa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, to understand how that works - I would obtain a single entry Non O that grants me a 90 day stay on entry. I usually stay for 2 weeks so provided I obtain a re-entry permit as I leave, I can return again provided I'm within the 90 days? Is there a requirement about when I can obtain an extension? I ask because although I used to visit every 8 weeks, this year its going to be every 12 weeks. If I can only obtain an extension towards the end of a 90 day stay, I won't be able to take advantage of the re-entry permit. In that case I guess I'd have to return after 11 weeks and go straight for an extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can enter using a re-entry permit with even a few days remaining on your original 90 day entry. 3 minutes ago, KhaoYai said: Is there a requirement about when I can obtain an extension?

You can normally apply about 2 weeks early for the 60 day extension and possibley more at some offices (30 days may be possible). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
