I'd like to clarify about the under consideration period please.

I have a Non-O (Thai wife) visa, and am on an annual extension with a multi-reentry permit (current extension and re-entry both issued at CW). Expiring 24/11/25. I'm in Bangkok, so will be applying at Chengwatthana.

If I've understood correctly, I can apply for the next year when I've got 45 days or less remaining (i.e. from 10/10/25 onwards), and will get 21 days under consideration from the application date.

If I apply on 10/10/25, I'd go back on 31/10/25, which is before my current annual extension expires.

On 31/10/25 would I get stamped for the next 1 year until 24/11/26, and be able to apply for a multi-reentry until 24/11/26? Or do I need to come back at a later date to get the extension stamped in?

If I'm planning to travel overseas during the under consideration period, would the existing re-entry permit still be valid, or does it get cancelled by the next year application, needing a new re-entry permit to cover the under consideration period?

I’m going for my first extension next week. Can I ask for a multi-reentry permit at the same time and will that allow me to leave the country and return as many times as I want (during the one year period) without having to get a reentry permit each time with no worry of losing my visa?

Hi everyone. I’m looking at doing two trips out of Thailand within a short period. I have a non-b and am wondering if I should get a multi-reentry permit or just two separate single ones. Is there a rule against this?

Thanks!
