Hello,

I am new to these forums and I am a little unsure of how the new visa rules affect me.

I have a one year non-immigrant B Visa from the UK, this expired in July but I went on a visa run the day before it expired and got another 90 days.

This 90 days extension expires on the 20th of this month, can I go on a border run to get another 30 days (I have no 30 day stamps) or do I have to leave the country and get another visa?

Many thanks.

Need more info. dude.

If you got a non-imm. B, that presumes you've been working in Thailand. Are you still working?

IF YES:

Go to a Thai embassy in a nearby country and go through the same procedure you did in the UK (documentation, fee, photos, etc.) to get a new non-imm. B visa. NEXT time, don't do a visa run involving a visitor's stamp--just get a 1-year extension to your non-imm B visa at the nearest immigration office. It'll save you time, money and hassle.

IF NO:

Then you can only survive 90 days in Thailand on a visitor's visa. After that, you're on your way home.

NEXT QUESTION:

When you did your "visa run" did you get an extension to your visa B at an immigration office near the border (Thai side)? Or did you do the typical "visa run?" -- run across the border, and come back on a visitor's visa? If you did the latter, and you're still working in Thailand, you blew it.

Here's why: You can keep your visa B current by doing annual extentions indefinitely (as long as you're working). If you got the visitor's visa instead, you have to go through the whole visa-B thing again, if you plan to continue working.

You have me confused ...... ----

You have a multi-entry non-imm B visa? When was it issued?

By inference, July last year at Hull (or other UK consulate)

To the OP, yes, you can do a border run and get 30 days (and do this twice more before you're history).

Hope you're not working without a permit

He says the visa expired in July so he made a visa run just prior to expiration and now has up to the 20th of this month is my reading. He is asking if they will refuse him 30 day visa exempt entry and from the rules this does not seem to be a problem for him as he has not used the allowed 90 days yet. I do expect they will not be exactly happy with him and may well check his 10k funds but suspect he will receive the 30 day entry.
