zenplay Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Hello. I just got my Non-O visa at Chaeng Wattana. 3 months. I will apply for extension 30 days before expiration. I will probably get 12 months extension. How many time can I apply for extension ? Can I apply every year ? Or, this kind of visa is limited to 1 time extension only ?

Yes Regards your extension if you ever wish to exit Thailand make sure you obtain a reentry permit. Some folk obtain the reentry permit same visit as the extension Edited September 30, 2023 by DrJack54 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note that your 12 extension is added to the expiry date of current extension Edited September 30, 2023 by DrJack54 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your application for the 1-year extension of stay is based on your original 90-day Non Imm O Visa for reason of RETIREMENT > Then yes But if your application is based on an original 90-day Non Imm O Visa for reason of MARRIAGE (or dependant children) > Then you will have to go through an 'under consideration' period, during which your application needs to be approved by Divisional Headquarters and during which you might get a visit from Immigration to check whether you are indeed living together with your Thai wife at the address you provided. That's a mostly bureaucratic process and it is very very rare that an Imm Office accepted application is later rejected. The 'under consideration' period normally takes approx 2 weeks and Immigration provides you with a date on which you have to come back to get the approved stamp in your passport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
