Trying to recall on a extension of stay based on marriage can you travel out of the country during the time between application and final stamp?
Answer summary
Yes, you can travel out of the country while your extension of stay based on marriage is under consideration, provided you purchase a new re-entry permit. This permit is only valid for the duration of the application process. It's important to inform the immigration officer about your travel plans when applying for the extension, and ensure you're back before the current visa stamp expires.

you CAN travel out of the country during the under consideration stamp period IF you buy a new re-entry permit (which is valid ONLY for that stamp), if you coordinate with the immigration office in case they're going to do a home visit AND obviously if you're back before that stamp runs out 🙂 .

SO

If you're going to exit/re-enter during the under consideration period make sure you TELL the immigration officer you're sitting in front of when you apply for the extension.

I did it in the beginning of the year after applying for my yearly extension. Got the in consideration stamp and asked for a single re-entry permit that’s valid till the end date of the consideration stamp. The IO was surprised but explained that I work abroad and that’s the reason I have always multi re-entry permit during the period of my yearly extension. Was no problem at all to get the single re-entry during the consideration stamp period, and out/in at suvharnabumi airport within the consideration period also no problem at all
