First up appreciate the update. 

Just to be clear... you received an "under consideration stamp" 

Return on date indicated for final stamp. 

Suggest you maintain funds in bank during this period. 

 

Correct, I received the "under consideration stamp", which basically is a one month extension of stay.

 

By the way, at the same time, I also applied and received a single re-entry permit which allowed me to have trip abroad.

 

Thanks for the suggestion, will do.

I'm not being picky. 

You appear to have understanding  of things. 

However you did not receive a one month extension. 

Regards reentry permit yes that will have expiry same as your under consideration stamp. 

For some folk a home visit could be an issue. 

Perhaps your immigration office does not do home visits

Noted with thanks!

For practical purposes, it's basically equivalent to a sort of 'one month extension of stay', but I do trust your experience regarding correct immigration terminology and procedures 🙂

 

Regarding the re-entry permit, I explained my situation to the officers, and they issued the re-entry permit, which I have already used. They explained to me that I could only apply for a single re-entry permit, due to the "under consideration stamp". So, I will need to apply for a multiple re-entry permit once I get the final extension of stay at the end of the month 🤞

 

Thanks again!

Yes that's correct. 

When you obtain the final stamp you will have a stamp with expiry. Approx 12 months. 

 

Make sure you obtain a reentry permit if you plan travel outside of Thailand during that period. 

Many folk opt for the Multi as each reentry permit takes half a page. Cost 3800b. Single is 1000b
