neverdie Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 (edited) If I'm not mistaking, as long as you enter on a date prior to the visa expiring, you will get another 90 days of stay from the date you enter. I assume you are talking about a Non Imm O visa? Edited May 25, 2010 by neverdie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 The full 90 days, provided you do have a multiple entry visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackbox Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Just remember the expiration date of your Visa is the last day you can enter the Kingdom under the terms of that Visa. No matter what date you enter, your stay until date will be the full time permitted under that visa. If you have a tourist visa you will get 15, 30, 60 or 90 days depending on what country you are from. If you have a Non-B or Non-O you will get the full 90 days. People often get these dates confused. Visa date is entry permitted until date. Stay date is what they stamp in your passport. Even if you enter on last day of Visa validity you will get the full stay permitted under your visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 The last day of visa validity is the day before the expiration date printed on the visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you leave the country you need a re-entry permit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 And on an extension of stay you can extend on the last day. But visas are user before, or by, or valid until, or such wording, and officials can refuse to honor on that printed date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunbelt Asia Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 shadiadi -- As you are on an extension of stay on a non-immigrant B visa, your situation is different. Firstly, as noted, you must have a re-entry permit. If you leave the country without one, the visa will be cut short and on return you will not have a visa. You'll end up with a 30-day stamp. If you travel using the re-entry permit, your original permission-to-stay date (11 months from now) will remain intact. Then, within the last 30 days of that date, you can apply for another extension of stay.
