AustinRacing Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Hi Today we applied to convert my NonB work visa to marriage. I received an under consideration stamp and paid 1900thb. Must attend immigration on 20 Jan 2023. I’d like to know what happens on 20 Jan and what other fees are applicable? thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmaxdan Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 There are no more fees to pay. When you return, you just hand over your passport over to the appropriate officer and sit and wait for them to stamp you passport. Sometimes they may still be waiting for confirmation that your extension has been granted and you will have to return in a couple of days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinRacing Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Thank you. I still need to do 90 day reporting? If I want to travel outside Thailand I need multiple entry paying extra. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time you exit your 90 day clock starts again on reentry date. As for reentry permit yes you need to purchase at immigration or airport at departure. That's a TM8 form. 1000b single reentry and 3800b multiple 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said, nothing, just rock up and get your stamp. One thing I believe you may need after you obtain you stamp is to do, is for you to go back to do your 90 days, i.e. for the 1st time, after that you can do it online, real easy and less of hassle, e.g. no travelling, no waiting at IO.

OP says he was on a non OB prior, so presume he is already doing 90 day reports. It may cause some confusion as OP may think 90 day has been reset. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I want to travel outside Thailand I need multiple entry paying extra. Right? The 90 day report is (in principle) totally separate from anything else and MUST always be done if you are in Thailand for a continuous period of 90 days or 90 days since your last report. The in principle is in italics because some offices will automatically do a report when you change your reason for your permission to stay . Also it is important to note that you do not have a visa you have a permission to stay and the rules are subtly different. Yes if you leave Thailand you need a reentry permit or you will have to start again. You should also expect that the immigration police will visit you during the under consideration period to verify that your marriage is de facto and de jure, they almost always ring before the visit to confirm a convenient time. Your wife must be present and at least one of your neighbours. For most immigration offices this will be the only visit though some visit more often Edited December 23, 2022 by sometimewoodworker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How often you travel may be your deciding factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 5 years on it I’m retiring so had to switch to extension based on marriage. Work cancelling my visa and work permit. That being said perhaps they are issuing me with a new visa. I’m confused too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
