Aussie D Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 My non b visa runs out on Feb 19 but my work permit and work contract are until March 17 and March 31 respectively. Is it possible to extend my non b until March 17 ( day work permit ends) by going to my local immigration office and paying the 1900 baht fee and complete all the paperwork I usually need for my yearly renewal. The dates don't add up because a few years back the nice gent at immigration only gave me 11 months instead of 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 There is no short extension you can apply for. They may might accept the application and do a under consideration stamp until you can supply a new contract and renewed work permit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKDfella Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 The TM 7 states '...in the kingdom for another period of .................days' I assume that means that the applicant can choose the length of the term up to one year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cannot request shorter or longer extensions than what are allowed. For example, 30, 90 or one year (365 days). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different situations have different set lengths of stay. I.E. 30 days, 60 days, 12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
