Hello
I have a non-o trailing spouse one year extension (there are over 10 months left..)
Due to an emergency I have to leave without canceling it. My spouse will remain in Thailand on his work visa-extension.
If, in the future, I will want to go back to Thailand on a new long term visa (work visa or business), will I be able to get a new extension for it?
Will they allow me to cancel that old extension then and there, before getting the new one?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is facing a situation where they have a one-year extension of a Non-O visa as a trailing spouse but need to leave Thailand suddenly without canceling the extension. The user inquires about the possibility of returning to Thailand on a new long-term visa and whether they can cancel the old extension upon reapplication. Comments suggest that if the extension expires without cancellation, a fine may apply, but it's generally easier to manage if handled properly. It's possible to cancel the expired extension and apply for a new visa later; however, keeping documentation is recommended to ease the process.
