Can I extend a Non O (visit spouse) visa while in Thailand?

John Morgan you did it for a marriage extension??Most agents won’t mess with a marriage visa

Lynnette Munloz I am planning to leave the country and apply for a visa there and return & follow thru. I am aware that cannot open a bank acct without the retirement visa. You haven't answered the question of can I do this on my own, or do I get an agent. I was told I had to apply and then open bank account with 20k for a year.

Ayesha Holloman tourist visa is 60 days. Not 30. Or did you come in without a visa and get the 30 day permission to stay "exempt" of any visa. Is there some reason you didn't get the Non-O visa before arriving? You can leave to nearby country and apply for non-O. Return. Open bank account. Then get 12 month extension.

Yes, forgot that .came on a tourist visa.for 30 days thinking that I would get a 60 day after making a border run, however had one hurdle after another. I am between getting an agent to apply for retirement visa with all the documents and take my chances because my deadline is up in 6 days. I am from the US had everything in place before I got here however,things changed just before flights. that's my storyline.

thanks for your help

Ayesha Holloman Would help if you give more information. Such as what visa your currently on

Ayesha Holloman need to explain what your issues are then we can give accurate advice

Ayesha Holloman If you are not already on a Non-O and what you will be applying for is an extension of stay (not a visa) then it is already too late to convert from your tourism entry stamp to an in country Non-O.

Peter Slaman Or one 60 days extention of stay based on visiting a Thai Family member
