Student on single entry ED visa looking to leave Thai for a few days at NYE

[Mc555]

Hey folks,

Hope you're all well and can help me with this one.. have had a browse around and been unable to find a query that matches.

I'm a student here and looking to pop out of the country for a few days to celebrate new year's eve somewhere.. new. Likely Hong Kong.

However my ED visa is single entry and expires in mid-Jan. Ordinarily I would be extending it then for the next 90 days.

Any suggestions on how best to navigate this one?

Thanks

You could get a single re-entry permit to keep your 90 day entry valid when you return. Then you could apply for the extension as soon as you return.

You can get the re-entry permit for a fee of 1000 at an immigration office or at either airport in Bangkok 24 hours a day.on departure from the country.
