Hello All. I have a question on leaving Thailand and re-entering on a 1 year marriage extension. I arrive old here with my Thai wife in early Nov from Canada my home country on Nov. 4 on a Single entry Non-O Visa based on marriage to a Thai. I started the process on arrival to extend to 1 year based on Marriage and lastly went to Udon Immigration on March 3.  I told the IO we were returning to Canada at the end of March 2022 and asked the IO if I could use this extension to return to Thailand in Oct 2022.  I paid 1,000 baht for the attached stamp. Does this mean I can come back to Thailand with only my passport and no other visa required? Do I need to go to Thai Immigration  on Canada before boarding my plane?  Do I need to get Thai covid insurance on return (I have it now until.end of May 2022)? Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquired about re-entering Thailand after obtaining a 1-year marriage extension on a Non-O Visa. They wanted to confirm if their extension would allow them to return without obtaining a new visa and whether additional steps, such as acquiring Thai COVID-19 insurance or visiting Thai Immigration in Canada, were necessary. Community responses indicated that the user could re-enter without additional visa requirements, provided they meet current COVID-19 regulations, such as the Thailand Pass.

As you have an official stay inside Thailand and a permit to re-enter again there is nothing you have to do about visa.

You have to meet the requirements for the Thailand pass and other covid precautions but that is not part of this group.

Thanks Robert. So, the Visa/Extension requirements are okay and nothing to do there, but IF at that time I need a Thailand Pass other Other Covid rules then that is something I must do at that time?
