Popenerrow Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 I'm a south african working here as a teacher. I have a one year visa and a work permit that will expire on April 2014. My wife is not Thai and she's staying here on a Non-o visa that will expire on Oct 28th, 2013 and we are thinking to go for an extension of stay tomorrow. I have a couple of questions and i'll really appreciate it if anyone could help. 1. She wants to stay here until the middle of November but her visa runs out at the end on oct 28th. My question is...Is it possible for her to just get a 30 days non-o visa extension? if yes,what documents do we need? 2. If she can't get a month extension,is any extension possible at all? if yes,what documents are required? Thanks for reading and any help would be appreciated.

ubonjoe Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 If she has a multiple entry visa she can do a border run just before the visa expires she would get another 90 day entry by doing a border run. She can also get an extension of stay as your dependent if you are on an extension of stay that would give her an extension equal to your permit to stay.

Popenerrow Posted October 20, 2013 Author Share Posted October 20, 2013 Thank you for replying. She's on a single entry visa. If she can be granted an extension of stay that is equal to mine,what documents do you think i'll need? thanks again for helping. I appreciate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 She will require proof of marriage and your passport showing the extension of stay as well as normal TM.7/photo/fee/copies of her passport/departure card. Suspect with you would be best. Marriage proof is in English? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Just copies of your passport photo page, extension of stay stamp and copy of your marriage certificate in Thai or English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 As said no problem in English or Thai but did not know wife nationality or where you married so wanted to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
