OA Visa 1 year multiple entry – 2ND YEAR QUESTION –

IF I have an OA MULIPOLE ENTRY Visa EXPIRES NOVEMBER 30,2023. If I enter the Kingdom on November 29th, 2023….

1) Will I get a stamp allowing me to stay for one more year, for example until November 28th 2024?

How do re-entries work during this 2nd year?

2) Can I leave and re-enter on this original OA visa or is the visa cancelled/expires as soon as I leave after November 29th, 2023?

2) Will this “2nd year” allow multiple entries?

3) Do I need to get a re-entry permit every time I leave the Kingdom in 2024?

TLDR : Answer Summary
If you enter Thailand on November 29, 2023, with an OA multiple entry visa, you will receive a stamp extending your stay until November 28, 2024. You are allowed to leave and re-enter during this second year as long as you obtain a re-entry permit each time to maintain your visa status. To have multiple entries, you should buy a multiple-entry re-entry permit. Additionally, insurance is required for the second year, valid for the length of your stay.

You will also need insurance for that 2nd year as you will only be stamped in for the validity of your insurance

2. (again). No, if you want multi entries then you could buy a multiple entry re-entry permit

2. During that second year if you plan to leave the country you would need to by a re-entry permit to keep your permission to stay valid.

1. Yes you will be stamped in for another year.
