Goinghomesoon Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 As my initial 3-month visa based on marriage to a Thai will expire soon I will have to go apply for a 12 month extension. My question is whether I can travel during the one-month period while waiting for the outcome of my yearly extension. Is the one-month deal multiple-entry or do I have to apply for a re-entry permit at the same time I apply for my extension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Any travel would require a re-entry permit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeniau96 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 You get the re-entry permit (single or multiple) after the extension. Different desk in same office, will need photo and fill out another form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goinghomesoon Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 Thanks - I just found out I will be travelling for work a few days before my extension approval should come through and won't be back for at least a month. Can I get the 12-month extension stamped at an embassy overseas (spouse won't be travelling with me)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goinghomesoon Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 Ah SBK I envy you, dealing with a small office I wonder if Chaeng Wattana will be that accomodating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I get the 12-month extension stamped at an embassy overseas (spouse won't be travelling with me)? No, you can't. Only immigration can give you the extension and if you are not in country when it is approved, you lose it and will have to apply for a new visa.

PoorSucker Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Apply for a 2 months extension based on marriage. Sort out the 1 year extension when you come back. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilDrSomkid Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 go in early and see if its ready Is that possible at Cheang Wattana? Any way to check this before making a trip there? We applied on May 10th and have a stamp to return on June 8th. Any way to check this before making a trip there? Can we call? It would be great if I did not have to wait until June 8th.
