ORIGINAL POSTER
Danish passport..My Non Imm O visa expires on October 17. If I enter by that day at the latest, I will be stamped in for 90 days. My question... Can I, in Denmark, buy a 60 day tourist visa without it changing my Non Imm O? I will then enter on my non Imm o and when the 90 days are up I will travel out and then re-enter on a 60 day tourist visa. Is it possible?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster (OP) inquires whether they can purchase a 60-day tourist visa in Denmark and still keep their Non Imm O visa. The responses clarify that entering Thailand on a Non Imm O visa will grant a 90-day stay, but obtaining a new tourist visa would invalidate the existing Non Imm O visa, as only the most recent visa is applicable upon entry. Alternative suggestions include applying for a METV to extend their stay without jeopardizing their Non Imm O visa.

I believe that the OP has the answers needed for his question.

Thanks all for your helpful replies.

Nope not at all, you get a new visa and that non-O is toast as the most recent visa is the one that takes precedence when you enter.

So if you're gonna stay on that Non-O you enter the country on or before Oct 17th 2024, get the 90 days,

THEN

if you want to stay longer, you either bounce out and back to get a free 30 day entry stamp and take a 30 day extension on that at the immigration office

OR

you go to a thai consulate in a nearby country to get a single entry tourist visa then come back in to get stamped in for 60 days

those would be the two choices IF you're wanting to use that Non-O that you have now

I think we need a picture of his stamp because it sounds like an extension and not a visa.

Thank you for helping

I guess I will buy a new non imm o at the end of October.. Then I only have to leave on time, to stay here 6 months as usual ๐Ÿ˜€

@Allan ********
where will you buy a New Non O as Retired ?

You will enter with the final 90 days of your current Non O

Multiple entry as retired.

You will have to leave Thailand to get a NEW Non O Visa as a retiree.

Sorryโ€ฆI fail to explain

I buy my non imm O at the Thai embassy in Copenhagen โ€ฆI stay in Thailand 6 months a year (The rigidly danish pension law says I have to stay in the EU half the year to obtain my full pension.)

So I stay in Denmark 6 month in the summer, and in Thailand in the wintertime.

@Allan ********
thank you for your response.

Is that a multi entry non-o visa? ie you only get stamped in for 90 days every time you enter and then must leave?

@John *********
sounds like it to me, but usually those are for marriage only?

@Wannikea ********
that's what I thought and why I asked

No, you cannot have two visas at once. The most recently granted one will void the other. So in your case you'll then enter on the tourist visa, and the non-O will be lost.

Or if you enter Thailand with the Non O Visa...you will be stamped in for 90 days.

What is the purpose that the Non O Visa was issued?

Married to Thai?

Father of Thai child?

Retirement?

Retirementโ€ฆ๐Ÿ˜€

Just wanted to avoid make a new non imm o until next year ๐Ÿ˜€

So my options are:

Either have a new non imm o, or enter on the present one and have a visa exempt..and buy 30 days

@Allan ********
is the Non O Visa for retirement you have newly issued?

I'm trying to understand what you now have..
Allan *********
ORIGINAL POSTER
@James *******
yes it is..it expires October 17

I am going to Denmark in May, and returns in October or November
James ********
@Allan ********
then get a NEW Non O multiple entry visa as retired in Denmark after your CURRENT one expires in October. As you cannot get that multiple entry Non O Visa anywhere in SE Asia .
James ********
NOPE... that plan will NOT ๐Ÿšซ work.

The Thai Immigration Officers will see you have 2 Visas upon arrival.

AND the Thai tourist visa is ONLY valid for 3 MONTHS from its DATE OF ISSUE .

IF you want to stay LONGER...

Simply get the METV multiple entry tourist visa in your home country before you fly to Thailand.

With planning it can get you up to 9 months stay in Thailand with a few simple LAND BORDER BOUNCE or by Air entries.
