ArranP Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Hello, I am divorced father with full custody of our 2 luk krueng children. My non O visa runs out July 2014, we live in Phuket however I'm going to be up in BKK over christmas so I thought I would submit my application for extension of stay whilst I'm there. Is this timing possible or do I need to wait until near the time my non o visa expires ? I've found the documents required here http://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/base.php?page=service, however I don't read anything about timing ? Thanks in advance of the advice. Regards Arran.

digitalchromakey Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 No and No are the answers to your questions. 1) You must apply to Thai Immigtration in the area where you live. 2) 30 (in some areas 45) days before your permission to stay expiry are the max normally.

ubonjoe Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 What do you have now? A multiple entry non-o from a embassy or an extension of stay from immigration. If a visa you can do the extension during the last 30 days of any of your 90 day entries. You have to do the extension in Phuket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( single divorced dad (42 years old) ) Excellent news - what you have however is not a 'Guardian Visa' but a One Year Extension of Permission to Stay based on Thai Family (Children) - National Police Order 777/2551 Case 2.18. Don't forget to make your 90 day reports to Phuket Immigration and that will include making one in January 2015, even though that will be when you also apply for a new One Year Extension of Permission to Stay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodles Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I am in the same position as the OP. I have a non O multiple visa which will finish in june. I have sole custody of my son with letters from the court supporting this. I do have 40K + baht per month going into my UK bank account, but I can not transfer this amount to my thai account every month. Is a letter from the british emabassy confirming I have funds in the uk enough for an extension? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Yes, there is no requirement to receive the money in Thailand. The embassy decides what they will accept as proof of your income to issue the letter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodles Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) Thanks Mario. Can I extend my non O multiple at my local immigration. Or do I have to apply for a new Non O outside thailand? Thanks Edited March 26, 2014 by Noodles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
