[lopburi3]

You enter and are allowed to stay up to 90 days. To get another stay of 90 days you have to leave, enter another country and return. If you qualify for extension (work permit and job that allows extension of stay) you present a number of documents to an immigration office, along with fee, and that is reviewed and if it meets the standards you are extended for one year.

[ofcourse]

1. so i get 90 days on arival and then go out for a visa run every 90 days ?

2. do i need to present some papers on the visa run ? or this is automatic proccess ?

3.the extansion is only after 1 year right ?

thanks so much

1. Yes, and you do it always latest 1 day before the date of the stamp to stay that you will get each time you enter the country.

2. No, but take pictures with you that you need for the visa application of the country you are entering/visiting

3. Correct

[lopburi3]

1. Every 90 days or less - you have unlimited number of entries so are free to travel as you wish.

2. You are required to be able to show 20,000 baht in cash on any entry into Thailand - although seldom checked.

3. You may extend you stay anytime you meet the qualifications for one year extension - it should be done during the last 30 days of a 90 day entry.

[gzu88bv]

3. You may extend you stay anytime you meet the qualifications for one year extension - it should be done during the last 30 days of a 90 day entry.

Lopburi3, to discuss this a bit further and just only from a technical standpoint is a (multiple) one-year-visa holder entitled to extend every time within a

90 day period and this 21 days latest and 30 days earliest of a stamp to stay? What is or should the starting respectively ending date look like of such extension? Thanks.

[lopburi3]

Am not sure I can read your question but Immigration normally asks that you apper with between 3-4 week remaining on your current permitted to stay stamp if you wish to extend for one year. This is not firm in most cases and often they allow earlier if you have reasons for and almost always allow later. But you can extend on any entry - you do not have to want for the end of your visa (expiration of visa one year from date of application) to apply for an extension of stay.

The starting date previously was always the date of entry for your current stay - but recently they seem to have been providing one year from date of expiration of current stay. So you now receive the full year on first application rather than about 9 months as was the case in the past.

2. You are required to be able to show 20,000 baht in cash on any entry into Thailand - although seldom checked.

Thank you lopburi3, you did a perfect job.

Sorry, I hope I do not spoil your day. However please tell me, is above figure a must for any Non-O-Visa holder too and where does it come from and yes, if everything goes wrong, could they literally ask me to use my credit card before entry, since I seldom run about with that cash in my pocket.

thanks again

[nonthaburial]

Have heard on the grapevine that the Penang Consulate is proving difficult to get a 12 month Nom Imm B visa these days. I am going back to UK next month and will be close to the Thai Consulate in Cardiff. Any reports on this consulate as I may try my luck there

20k is required for any visa entry - 40k if family. Yes they could require you to put the money on display.

Immigration is not liklely to ask you how you obtained your visa during entry.

[digitalchromakey]

Penang is currently not a problem for 1 year multiple entry Non B Visas, if you have the correct paperwork/Work Permit, etc.

Hi,

Even if you do not have a Work Permit but only a "Business Invitation Letter" ?

You can certainly get a 3 month single entry non B from Penang without a Work Permit, but with the correct paperwork.

Check the following link to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for that list: http://www.mfa.go.th/web/2482.php?id=2492

You would require the invitation letter (slip of paper) from the Labour Dept issued against a new Work Permit application.

As I understand from other posts made on this forum, then you need to go some way outside of neighbouring asian countries to get a 1 year multiple entry non B visa with just a "Business Invitation Letter".

You enter and are allowed to stay up to 90 days. To get another stay of 90 days you have to leave, enter another country and return. If you qualify for extension (work permit and job that allows extension of stay) you present a number of documents to an immigration office, along with fee, and that is reviewed and if it meets the standards you are extended for one year.

I would like to inquire further on the subject of one year multi-non-immigrant

I live in California and requested my one year visa from the Houston Consulate. Before doing that, I asked the Consul's secretary this question:

"If I get the one year non-immigrant visa with multiple entries, do I have to go out of Thailand every 90 days and re-enter the country?"

Her reply was: "not necessarily."

She would not elaborate. I did get my passport back in 4 days and the stamp reads: "Type B visa. Multiple journeys. Must be used before July 16, 2010."

However, there is no mention of what she told me nor it clearly states the length of the visa.

Can our kind and learned Lopburi, shed light on this matter?

Thank you!

A two year old thread but the answer is the same. You are entitled to make unlimited entries within the year up until July 16th.

Each entry has a limit of 90 days. So yes you have to leave and re enter at least every 90 days. Do the last entry the day before the Visa expires and you get another 90 days giving a total of 15 months.

Lite Beer, a few months ago we had an argument about this, you even accused me to spread desinformation. I tried to find that topic back but I could'nt.

I wrote that with an 1 year multiple entrance non immigrant O Visa you did NOT hhave to leave the country. You stronly denied this and even accused me of speading desinformation; I told you that I would reply the moment I made my first 90 day's report at Suan Plhu.

Well Litebeer I was excactly 10 minutes inside to arrange everything. I DID NOT HAD TO LEAVE AND RE-ENTRY THE COUNTRY;

I got an paper pinned

[lopburi3]

Please advise what paper you have? A non immigrant O multi entry visa only allows a 90 day stay if not extended. If you do not extend you must leave the country.

What does the permitted to stay until stamp in your passport say? 90 day reports on TM.47 form have nothing to do with being able to stay here. Only the permitted to stay until stamp actually on your passport page means anything.

And I stay with what I said there and also see no mistakes that Lite Beer or Maestro might have made.

You got an extension of stay for one year and no longer have to use the multiple non-O visa. Without the extension of stay you would had to leave the country every 90 days.

If it is not an extension, then they made a mistake. (maybe they mistook it for an O-A visa) You have to leave the country every 90 days and do not need to do 90 day reports.

Only when you go to immigration for an extension of stay would you be allowed to stay longer then 90 days. If you can please scan your visa and permission to stay and post it.

With a Tourist Visa you have to leave when your stay ends.

I had or have no extension what so ever.

I got my first multiple a few years back, but it was expired on 24/05/2008 and I did left the country before that date;

The second multiple O 1 year multiple entrance is valid from 24/03/2009 till 24/03/2010

I entered the country on 24/04/09 and went to report my first 90 day's at Suan Phlu and got this document pinned at the last page of my passport

So I dont have to leave the country, and re-enter,correct?

[Mario2008]

No, they probably didn't check your permisison to stay and just filled out the 90 day report.

If you say what you have is indeed a multiple non-O, then you eiter leave the country every 90 days or apply for an extension of stay for 1 yera, for which you have to submit the necesarry documents.

Please scan your visa and permission to stay, the stamp you got at the airport when you entered the country, so we can check.

You have a Multi Entry Non O Visa. This gives you unlimited entries with a maximum of 90 days each entry. Meaning that you have to leave the country every 90 days and return.

Quite why you did a 90 day report I have no idea.

You have to leave and return on or before 22nd July or you will be on overstay.

The immigration officer at Suan Phlu did not mention about leaving the country, we asked about other things we had to do, she said simply come back to report on 12 October thats all.

I did the 90 day report because the Thai consulate in Antwerp advised me to do like that.

Is it possible that you are un-aware of this rule, (just asking).

Do you have any experience about people who did like me.(also just asking)

Maybe an multiple entry Visa means that you have the oppertunity to leave and re-enter without asking, aply or have to pay Visa fees, but not force you to do like that, meaning you have the right to do it but not obligated to do so. Did you ever considered this, (again just asking)

all the above its not meaning I like to be a know it all or a smart arxxx, but are just genuine remarks to set my mind at ease.

[Lite Beer]

It is really up to you what you want to do.

All we can do is tell you what you have and what you need to do.

If you choose to go another route that is your decision. I am telling you that you have to leave Thailand on or before 22nd July. Or be on overstay , risk prison and a big fine.

Your Choice.

The stamp in your Passport says. Admited Until 22nd July 2009. Think about it.
