Hi i have a question, i got a multiple entry visa as im travelling a few times this year. I have to renew my non b visa in july, will the re entry visa be valid on my new non b visa or will i have to get another re entry visa ?
Answer summary
The user inquired about the validity of a multiple entry re-entry visa while renewing their Non-B visa in July. Responses clarified that one cannot renew a visa, only apply for a new extension. It was emphasized that a new re-entry permit must be obtained after the new extension is granted if travel is planned, as leaving the country without a re-entry permit would cancel the new extension.

Before your current extension expires you go to the immigration office and apply for a brand new year's extension using the same documentation you did for this years. AFTER you get that extension inked into your passport you would buy another re-entry permit IF you are going to travel out of thailand during the next year.

If you get the year extension and leave the country without a re-entry permit you will cancel your extension and have to start all over again from square one

Ahh now we're getting somewhere

, you don't have ANY visa anymore. You are on what is known as a yearly extension.

Think of it this way, you are getting an extension on your stay INSIDE the country so they are sold without a re-entry permit because you're already here.

you just pay the 1900baht for the extension. If you need a re-entry permit they are sold separately after you get your year extension and they are good for the duration of the extension too.

you are NOT renewing anything. You are applying for a brand new extension of stay in July.

Look on your current re-entry permit, you can see that it is only good as long as your current extension is.

So once you get the new extension you need a new re-entry permit too

do you do 90 day reporting OR do you leave the country every 90 days to get another 90 day stamp?

if you have a multiple entry visa you do not need a re-entry permit. It looks like you mix some different things here. Do you have a Visa Sticker in your passport and make every 90 days a border run to get a new 90 day Admitted to Stay period or do you have an Extension of Stay based on working and report every 90 days at Immigration?

Be that as it may, you said you have a year-long, multi-entry Non-B visa that you got at a thai consulate in another country where you border bounce every 90 days. Is that correct?
Tod *********

Okay, first off you can NEVER EVER renew either a visa or an extension of stay. :/
