terry101 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Guys I have just realized that I have overstayed my one year family visa by over a month. What is the procedure to get this renewed, does this mean I have to leave Thailand and re-enter and go through all the procedures again. Not sure if being married to a thai and having a son makes this any easier. Advise much appreciated. Thanks Terence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) I assume you mean you have an extension of stay based upon marriage not a visa. You could go to immigration and try to get extension after paying 500 baht per day overstay fine up to a maximum of 20,000 baht. Or leave to get a non-o visa paying fine on departure. Then return and apply for your extension. Edited September 9, 2013 by ubonjoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lite Beer Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 It all depends on what you actually have in your Passport. Visa or Extension of stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sceptict11 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) It all depends on what you actually have in your Passport. Visa or Extension of stay. It is a Non Immigrant "O" visa A one year "visa" means you have been doing "border" runs every 90 days. An "extension of stay" means you have been doing 90 address reports at immigration. Specify which and you will receive appropriate advise Edit spelling! Edited September 9, 2013 by Sceptict11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 What is the procedure to get this renewed, does this mean I have to leave Thailand and re-enter and go through all the procedures again.Reading the above indicates to me you have an extension you got from immigration not a 90 day non-o visa entry. If you have been making 90 day reports to immigration you have an extensionot a visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I will have to go through the whole process as you have referred to in your post. Thanks for the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) There is a big difference. Don't forget to have money for overstay fine. Edited September 9, 2013 by ubonjoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lite Beer Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 And probably have to pay overstay fine of 500 Baht a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 You always have to go through the same procedure each year anyhow - the only additional item will be a new non immigrant visa entry if they will not allow payment of overstay and immediate extension again.
