Can anyone explain this? A little long winded but bear with me. Thanks. Aussie Passport. Have a Non Imm B Multiple Entry Visa (expires mid August). Currently on Amnesty as airports closed and my 90 day stamp expired last week. Have a newly renewed Work Permit, a week ago in fact. Usually I need to leave every 90 days but my work (pre Covid-19) has me traveling often so no issues there. Before anyone comments that it is a dodgy company that gets the Non Imm B Multiple Entry Visa that is not the case. Is my company and I usually visit my family in my home country where it is relatively relaxed to sort out my visa before returning to the Kingdom. Company is legit and all taxes and fees are up to date.
So after several trips to the Immigration office with all documents required for a new visa issued in Thailand, the feedback I have is no problem: just fly out before July 31st and come back in with a stamp for 90 days then do the visa. They cannot issue a new visa as my current visa is not yet expired I cannot fly out and back in as yet this is not possible. And no clear timeline as to when it will be. July is being touted as being when International flights will resume. But several conflicting reports seem to suggest otherwise. As in it might be August or even September before flights are an option. What happens on July 31 if flights are still not an option? Why cannot my current visa be cancelled and a new visa issued? Thanks and sorry for the long story...
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is an Australian passport holder currently on a Non Imm B Multiple Entry Visa and facing challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Their 90-day stamp has expired, and they are on amnesty as international flights are unavailable. They have been advised by Immigration to leave Thailand before July 31st to receive a new stamp for 90 days, but concerns arise as flights may not resume by that date. The user is unsure if they can apply for a new visa inside Thailand or if their new work permit complicates their situation.
