I have a ME type O visa and I need to make a visa run. I am in Hua Hin and US citizen married to a Thai she will be going too. What are my easiest options? I need 90 more days since I'm here for almost 6 months. 

Thanks for help.

Answer summary

A US citizen with a ME type O visa in Hua Hin is seeking options for a visa run to secure an additional 90 days in Thailand. Suggestions from the community include traveling to nearby countries like Malaysia for a vacation while obtaining a 60-day tourist visa at the Royal Thai embassy in Kuala Lumpur. Other options include visiting places like Melaka, Luang Prabang, and Da Nang. Additionally, an alternative for those on a budget is to fly to a nearby country and return on the same day, making sure to officially enter the destination.

If you don't want to spend money on a vacation to do it, you can fly out to any other country and fly backin same day , as long as you officially enter the country you go to (through passport control) . Pick a country that you don't need a visa for though.

Fly to KL and obtain 60 day tourist visa at the Royal Thai embassy there. You must book and appointment there beforehand on their website. You can extended the 60 days by another 30 days once you are back in Thailand

ah gotcha. Sorry. You can’t get a one year marriage extension at your local immigration?

regardless, the easiest thing to get is the extension. So you can stay as long as you wish, then head back
