Hello I have a non O multi visa. After my first three months i used the 60 day visit extension. Then on March 25th got a 90 day medical stamp im now on the amnesty am i able to get a new visit family extension cone September 26th TIA.

Answer summary

The user inquired about the possibility of securing a new 60-day family visit extension on their NON-O multi visa while currently under amnesty. They had previously used a 60-day extension and received a 90-day medical stamp. Responses suggest that it's best to consult the local immigration office, noting that the family visit extension can typically be granted once per entry or visa. Another option could be a medical extension if applicable.

60 day visit family extensions are given either once per entry OR once per visa. (and either way your office does it you used yours because you haven't been outta the country since you got the last 60 day extension).

You're out nothing by trying, AND you're out nothing by asking your embassy if they issue a letter stating you can't travel after the 26th of Sept.

Good Luck with it.

Thanks for your quick reply thats what i thought but no harm asking. The medical was for taking care someone else who is no longer here. Ive been here 18 years and have 3 children 14, 8 and 4 im the sole guardian carer for them my wife is working. If the answer is no for the 60 day is there no other option ie letter from embassy ?.

The other options are:

a. To get a one year extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai national. This will require the 400K THB seasoned in the bank for 2 months.

b. To get a one year extension of stay based on raising half Thai children (also requires the 400K THB).

The letter from the embassy may be a possibility, however that depends if your embassy will issue those letters or not. I believe the USA and UK embassy are NOT issuing those letters.

If you're still seeking medical treatment, another option is to continue on your extension of stay based on medical reasons. You get a 30 day extension on each application, and is also 1,900 THB - according to the flyer below

I think that's a question you should ask your local immigration office. I would assume no, since you already got that extension of stay.

I recommend going to your local immigration office on August 3 and applying for another 60 day extension of stay based on visiting Thai family. It will cost 1,900 THB and the worse they would say is "no". The extension of stay will be added to the amnesty.

every office may have slightly different reqs so it’s best to go and ask first, go prepare, then return to apply. But generally you will need....

Marriage certificate

Wife ID card

Wife house registration book

Kor ror 2 from the amphur office (this verifies you are still married)

Your passport, with copies of your previous visa and entry stamps

Rental contract where you live

1900 baht

Wife needs to be present

The requirements for the extension of stay based on visiting Thai family depends on your local immigration office. They generally require:

1. Your passport, and a copy of:

a. Your data ("picture") page

b. Your visa

c. Your entry stamp

d. Your departure card

2. Your wife's Thai ID, and a back and front copy of her ID

3. Your marriage certificate, and a front and back copy of your marriage certificate

4. A copy of your wife's housebook (she'll know what it is)

5. Your wife to be there

6. 1,900 THB for the extension of stay fee

However, each immigration office may have their own, unique differences.
