Question on visa type o-a

[chaurio]

I was issued a type O-A Visa as a retire but for Single Entry. Was refuse Multiple Entry by Thai Embassy in Canada.

Will I be able to change it for a Multiple Entry when I am in Thailand. I do want to stay in Thailand and find an appartement but also want to be able to visit neighboring countries without losing my retirement visa status.

Could anyone inform me of this.

The O-A is always a single entry when you get them from abroad. You must get a multiple reentry permit for your NON-OA at the local Thai Immigration, then you can travel unlimited.
