Hello.  I’m a US citizen residing in Chiang Mai.  I have a NON-O visa based on retirement.  It’s valid until 11 September 2020.  I have to leave Chiang Mai next month for 1 year but plan on coming back then.  Unless you have better advice, I plan on flying back before it expires and renew and then leave again.

My questions: 

1) How many days before and after 11 September 2020 can I extend my visa and what paperwork do I need to prepare?  I will keep the THB 800,000 in the back as my bank book will attest.

2) If I buy a multi-entry permit is it good for 365 days or only until I extend my NON-O visa?

Thank you 🙏!

Be aware that among your documents for extension, you will probably need (check it, though) a Lease/Rent contract of a house/apartment...

in Chang Mai you can apply for a new 1 year Extension of Stay between 45 days before until 11 September 2020.

2. If you buy a Multiple Re-Entry Permit is will be valid as long as your current permitted to stay period. In your case 11 Sep 2020.
