Do I Need to Leave Thailand Every 90 Days with a Non-O Visa Based on Marriage If I Start Working?
Hi all. I have a one year non-O based on marriage. If I start working (with a work permit, obviously!) and want to keep the non-O rather than switch to an extension of stay, will I still need to leave the country every 90 days? Thanks in advance!
Answer summary
With a one-year Non-O visa based on marriage, you are required to leave Thailand every 90 days unless you switch to a yearly extension based on your marriage, which would remove that exit requirement. The extension is not dependent on employment.

, IF you got an extension based on marriage to a thai, (which is the ONLY extension you can get off that O visa) and you lost your job, the extension would be fine. It wasn't issued based on employment, it was issued because you're married to a thai.I always recommend people who are employed and married to thais to get the marriage extension rather than a Non-B and the employment extension just in case it doesn't work out with the job

perfect - thanks for the clarification. Much appreciated!Tod *********
yep, that's how that visa works. You bounce out and back in every 90 days.
The only way NOT to have to do that would be to get the yearly extension by meeting the financial requirements at the immigration office

yes that's the oneEd ******
One clarification: is it a simple walk thru a land border and walk back immediately or do you have to flight out? Do you have to be out a certain amount of time?

OPIf I get the extension and the job doesn't work out I'd be back to square one right? 7 days to leave the country to get a new visa and so on?

cheers - I thought that was the case but thought I'd double check.Tod *********
there is no problem keeping the year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa you're on and bouncing out/back in every 90 days AND holding a work permit and working
I know plenty of people who do that
