I just received my 'Under Consideration' (UC) stamp in anticipation of receiving my 1-year extension on my Non-Immigrant O (spousal) visa.

My previous 90-day visa expires on the 17th April. I have a multiple re-entry permit already for this visa. My UC stamp asks me to return to (hopefully) get the extension on the 2nd May.

I need to travel out of Thailand twice in the next 30 days. Once from the 4th to the 6th April and again from the 14th to the 22nd April (these trips are essential).

Do I need a new re-entry permit for these two trips or does my existing re-entry permit cover me for the first? Does it even cover me for the second?

UPDATE: I went to Bluetree today for a fourth opinion. I went to great lengths to explain my question clearly but the short version is the Immigration Agent I spoke to told me I would not need a new re-entry permit until the date on my old one expired, then I should get a single re-entry permit for my second trip.

As I was about to leave the boss of the office shouted out 'Mai dai'. He then dived in and explained the first immigration agent was wrong, and as soon as I get the UC stamp my previous visa and its re-entry permit is cancelled so I need two new single re-entry permits or one multiple re-entry permit to travel during the UC period.

My conclusion is that no one, including immigration has a crystal clear picture of what I should do, but the safest option is to treat the UC stamp as a separate visa and get new re-entry stamps as required. Better too many than too few. Hope this helps people.

Thanks for those who provided useful input.

Hello People on Thailand

Somebody know when the News comming next Week if they Extending (or will still giving) Covid Visa after 24th May 2022?

Best Regards

On an ED visa. Need to cancel it. Finishes in 17th Feb. Original plan was to go back to UK and return. Test & go cancelled has changed that 😄 (don't fancy quarantine or Phuket)

'If' covid extensions are still a thing then, will the 60 day extension be from the day I go to immigration to get it or from the 17th Feb?

Thank you in advance.

Looking for recommendations for sha+ hotel in Bangkok

Hello. I just got a Covid extension with an 'under consideration' stamp, saying I must be back at Immigration on Sept 30 for the next stamp.

Is it possible to get that stamp before Sept 30? (Now my visa agent says she needs my passport--for a longer term visa--by Sept 27.) Many thanks.

Can a Thai go to Phuket with an antigen test or does it have to be a PCR test ??
