Hello, I'm about to renew my retirement visa, living in Chiang Mai without multiple entry formula.
- Can I buy my multiple entry visa before I decide to leave abroad at Chiang Mai immigration (or at airport?)?
- How many working days will immigration need to process that?
- It is then 1 year valid (of course as long as retirement visa is valid, but that would then go over in the renewment retirement visa when I apply for that in due time?), so that I don't in fact loose money since I don't know when I would live, or if at all (but I would want to go for multiple entry, not single entry).
- The cost for that is 3.800 THB?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires about renewing their retirement visa in Chiang Mai and the process of obtaining a multiple entry visa. They seek clarity on whether they can purchase the multiple entry visa at the Chiang Mai immigration office or airport prior to leaving Thailand, the processing time required, and the validation period. Additionally, they confirm the cost of the multiple entry visa. Comments clarify that they will be applying for a new yearly extension of stay, which costs 1900 THB and is issued immediately without processing time. After receiving the extension, they can then buy a multiple entry re-entry permit at the cost of 3800 THB, valid for the duration of their extension.
