@[Paul Andrew]([members only]) 

does the wife need to actually go in person with  the man to the Laos consulate to get a non-O visa? 

for this year-long visa, do you have  to leave and reenter thailand every 3 months? 

for this visa, can  extend inside thailand at local immigration office? if so, when is that  possible (after the full year, or at any time)?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about the process for obtaining a non-O visa, specifically asking whether their Thai wife needs to accompany them to the Laos consulate, the requirement for leaving and reentering Thailand every 3 months, and the extension process for the visa within Thailand. Responses confirm that the wife does not need to go in person, there is a requirement to exit and reenter every 90 days on a year-long Non-O visa, and that extensions can be applied for any of the 90-day entry stamps when 30 days or less are remaining.

1 NO you can go on your own without your thai wife as long as she signs the documents that have her name on them

2 yes, on a year-long, multi-entry Non-Immigrant Type O visa from a thai consulate you bounce out and back in every 90 days.

3 you can apply for a yearly extension on ANY of the 90 day entry stamps you get off that visa when you have 30 days or less left on them. You meet the proof of funds, supply the required documentation,

the application will go under consideration for 30 days then you go back and get the year extension inked into your passport.

3 If you meet all the requirements for the yearly extension can you also pay extra to make this multi entry?
