ubonjoe Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 You can get a 60 day extension at immigration to visit your wife. You would need you need your wife to go with you. Plus copies of marriage certificate, wife's house book and ID. Copies your passport photo page, entry/permit to stay stamps and TM6 departure card. Completed TM7 application with attached photo and 1900 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Police order 777/2551 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...

Lite Beer Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Yes. 60 day "Thai Family Extension" has been around for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 But until current police order in 2551 it was marked as "one time only" and very few reports of anyone actually obtaining. It has only recently become much more available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Yes it can but both should visit immigration with full documentation (marriage/birth certificate/id card and home register for Thai) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
