Lite Beer Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 You can get a 60 day extension to visit your Wife. You can also get a 12 month extension if you meet the financial requirements. (6) In case of marriage with a Thai lady, the husband who is an alien must have an average annual income of not less than 40,000 baht per month or a money deposit in a local Thai bank of not less than 400,000 baht for the past 2 months for expenses within a year.

lopburi3 Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 You just visit Immigration with wife and her id/home register and marriage proofs and your passport and fill out a TM.7 form with 4x6cm photo of you and pay 1,900 baht for the 60 day extension of stay. You can not get another directly on top but you may be able to get more each year with new entries between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to extend a 60 daysTR visa with 60 days as well or is 30 days the maximum? Feel free to post any links to any official information on this matter.

kokos Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 It is if the reason is to visit your Thai Wife. Sounds good, so if I extend my 60 days TR-visa because I'm visiting my wife with 60 days; I will be able to stay in Thailand for 120 days with out any border run?

Lite Beer Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 2.24 In the case of an alien visiting a Thai spouse or child: Permission will be granted for a period of not more than 60 days at a time (1) Proof of relationship. (2) In the case of a spouse, their marital relationship shall be de jure (legitimate) and de facto. From Police Order 777/2551 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario2008 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Sorry to hear that, it is not how the rule is normally applied. Did you visit with your wife? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikotin888 Posted December 17, 2010 Author Share Posted December 17, 2010 Yes my wife was with me. I asked a guy who makes visa stuff in bangkok and he also told me that i have to go for boarderrun first. You cannot extend on extension,actually sounds wright! ;-)But no problem,rent a nice ninja 250 and go for a borderrun,not the worst thing to spend a day! regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop down to poi-pet and get a 2 week transit stamp. Wait till that nearly runs out and then head to immigration with wife and docs for a 60 day extension Quite easy.
