Extend Non-b?

[zehner]

Hi,

I got my single-entry non-b in Penang a while ago and it expires the middle of September. I'm going to Cambodia next week for a weekend break and was wondering is there anyway for me to get an extension or re-entry permit of some kind on the visa?

I don't have a work permit (company won't get one ) and make over 60g a month.

Cheers.

If you entered Thailand with that single entry B visa it has expired as you made the only entry allowed. What date it may have as expiration was in reference to a use by date.

Now if you have several months remaining on your permitted to stay in Thailand stamp you could obtain a re-entry permit to allow you to return to use the remainder of that time. You do that at immigration prior to leaving at a cost of 1,000 baht and photo and somehow not mention you are working here illegally.

Thanks lopburi3.

I fully realise the illegality of my situation; your implication seems to be that I will get the third degree from immigration if I try to get a re-entry permit? Has anyone else on this board been in this situation? I will be leaving from Don Muang.

Do not believe you will have a problem but as you made a point of how much money you were making without a work permit in your first post did not want you to be doing the same at an immigration desk thinking it was going to impress them.

Thanks again.

I gave my income as I believe it's related to getting extensions....but as you have pointed out I would not do the same at immigration
