My yearly extension of stay for non-O marriage ends Sept 4th.
I’ll leave Thailand next week and come back end of August 20th, by plane.
Then I’ll leave Thailand again Sept. 16th to my home country (Germany) and come back in November.
What will happen August 20th when I enter Thailand (by plane)
1. with a Reentry Permit: Can I stay until September 19th (after expiry Sept 4th of my extension of stay)?
2. without a Reentry Permit: Will a get a normal 60 day visa-exemption stay ? (I understand that the extension of stay becomes invalid)
Thanks in advance.
Background:
My travel schedule makes it difficult to do the extension as usual b/c my travel collides with the timelines for application and ‘under consideration’ period.
So my idea is to get a new Non-Imm o visa (marriage) multi-entry yearly in my home country before returning in Nov.
The visa itself shouldn’t be a problem. I clearly fulfill all the requirements and did it a few times before .
(sorry, if answered before. I failed to find it)
TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster is seeking advice on their visa status as their yearly extension of stay for a non-O marriage visa is expiring soon. They inquire about re-entering Thailand with or without a reentry permit. It is clarified that if they have a reentry permit, they cannot extend their stay beyond the expiry date of their current extension. However, without a reentry permit, they may receive a normal 60-day visa exemption upon re-entry, but they will lose the validity of their extension. Several commenters offered insights, indicating that obtaining a single-entry Non-O visa might be advisable before returning in November due to changes in visa availability.
