ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi. My daughter is on a Non Ed visa that's expiring this month. Does anyone know if it's possible to get a 1 month grace extension at immigration if she needs that time to get her flight tickets and plan her travel out of Thailand? Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary

A Non-Ed visa does not come with a grace period for extension. Extensions are generally not granted unless there are direct Thai relatives involved. An alternative option for extending her stay is to exit the country to a land border and re-enter, which could provide additional time.

No grace period.

If she hasnt done any land entries this year, she can just hop a land border & back, which'll give her the month she needs

not everyone can get Visa exempt and the op hasn't given the passport country of their daughter.

Just make sure Visa has been cancelled properly before doing the land crossing I’ve been told it can be an issue

There is no grace period and no extension available unless your daughter has a direct Thai relative such as a spouse, parent or child.
