TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired about extending their multi-entry non-A visa, which is set to expire in 15 months. Responses indicate that while a standard 30-day extension is not available for this type of visa, there may be an option for a 60-day extension based on marriage to a Thai national. This extension can be applied for at the immigration office for a fee, ideally a couple of weeks before the current visa expires.

If you not used it yet, you might even get 60 days Extension of Stay based on visiting family

no 30 day extension available on a Non-Imm visa BUT you could possibly get the one 60 day visit thai family extension based on marriage to a thai. Most people get the 15 months you can out of the visa and then take that 60 day visit family to get 17 months out of it total.

Go to your immigration office a couple weeks before your current stamp expires and apply for it for 1900 baht.

now keep in mind as far as that 60 day visit thai family extension..

SOME offices interpret the rule allowing it as "one time per ENTRY" <- meaning you can get it on every 90 day from that visa if you wanted to

BUT with that being said

SOME offices interpret the rules allowing it as "one time per VISA" <- meaning IF in the last 15 months of 90 day entries you'd used the 60 day visit family extension, then you cannot use it again on any entry from that visa.

So check with your office well before you will apply for it, to see what they do and to see what documentation is required to get it

Failing that you can bounce out and back get a free visa exempt entry stamp for 30 days and take a 30 day extension <- and then even the 60 day visit family one if you wanted/needed to ๐Ÿ˜‰
