AnotherOneHere Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Let's say I have to ask for another 1 year extensions of marriage visa before 20 June which will be under consideration until 20 July. But what if I plant to leave Thailand before 20 June and return after 20 July (with re-entry permit). Will it expire and I will have to go through whole ordeal again from beginning?

NB you cannot get a reentry permit whith a longer validity than your current permission of stay This subject has been discussed many times.

TroubleandGrumpy Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Delay the trip if you can. If you cannot, then go - and return using a tourist Visa (real one, not an automatic on arrival), and then go to the local Office and submit an application for a new Marriage Extension - plus take proof of the reason you had to leave the country at the 'wrong time'. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly he would have everything in place to obtain the non O at Thai immigration. With visa route he could apply for non O based on marriage if visiting home country. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will also need to be at home, for the home visit, but you haven't mentioned what IO you use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CecilM Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Nothing in life is more important than the renewal date(s) of your visa. But if your need is so strong, then coming back on a tourist visa and restarting the marriage visa application process must be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never saw it any different anyway....meaning every marriage visa renewal was basically the whole ordeal again...same papers...same map to my house...same pics of us... Marriage Certificate, Marriage Registry entry, Wife's Tabbien Baan and ID Card, home visit (usually) yada yada yada Edited May 27 by mania Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNXBKKMAN Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 If you have never extended your O visa you can pay for normal one month extension of 30 days 1900 baht. That will make your enewal due around 20 July. I was had a similar situation last year. The immigration officer said I could do this no problem but in the end I just accepted the under consideration block on travel and cancelled my plans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiang Mai immigration offered me a one month extension to my marriage renewal last year. The Immigration officer said because I had never made a one month extension to my o visa, just yearly marriage extensions, I could so it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 60 day extension to visit wife can be used once. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
