I visited Chiang Mai immigration today to ask some questions about a 1 year extension of stay based on marriage, but the volunteer I spoke to didn't seem too sure, so thought I'd check here.

I'm currently on a 1 year multiple entry non-O based on marriage which I got from Savanakhet & this will be my first 1 year extension.

I put the 400k in my Thai bank on July 1st. I believe this means I can apply on September 1st. Although the volunteer mentioned because it's my first extension of stay, the money may need to be in my bank for 3 months rather than 2. Can anyone confirm this?

My current visa expires on September 3rd but my last entry stamp is valid until September 26th.

I have the option to do a border bounce before September 3rd to get another 90 days, but I'd rather not do that unless it's absolutely necessary.

The wife and I were planning on applying for the visa at CM immigration on September 6th.

As long as we have all the correct paperwork, are we likely to run into any issues with this timeframe? (especially if they say the money needs to be in the bank for 3 months rather than 2).

Should there be any issues when we apply, would I be able to extend my current stay past September 26th at immigration?

Final question: My wife changed her surname to mine a few months after we registered the marriage last year. She has a certificate for this which I will include in the application. Do we need to update our original marriage certificate (which has her old name) or is it fine as it is?

I just want to make sure I've got everything in order before applying. Thanks!

I‘ll arrive on a 30 day visa exemption and would like to extend it for another 30 days. Is there an immigration office in Koh Phangan and where do I find the official forms and information what to bring to the immigration office?

Hello Group,

I would like to share my experience applying for my third 60 day covid extension at Chaengwattana.

Nationality: American

I submittted the usual documents: TM7, covid extension request form, overstay form, copy of passport data and visa pages, TM30, copy of 90 day receipt(although the officer requested to see the original), and one passport photo.

Surprisingly the officer handed back my outward ticket and email from my embassy stating they don’t issue letters.

No questions asked and the process took 25 minutes. I queued at 9:55 and left around 10:20.

I feel lucky 🍀 or maybe they are being more relaxed due to the coming wave of omnicron.

Cheers

Hi guys 😊 I will be applying for the “covid visa extension” for the first time. As far as I know the Immigration in Bangkok will require me to present a TM.30 form, correct? I am a tourist staying at an airbnb. My landlord said he is unable to provide me with the TM.30 because he is a foreigner himself. (I don’t know if this is a valid reason, but anyway I don’t want to argue). Here is my question. Is it possible to get the covid extension without the TM.30? Is there a chance they will not ask for it? If not then what are my options? I’d appreciate your help and suggestions.

Also, do I go for the covid extension to the same building where I went for the regular extension of a visa exemption? (I am in Bangkok) Aside from the TM.30 are there any other additional requirements (aside from passport photo, copy of passport page bio and stamp, TM.6)? Thank you.

Hello all,

I would like to ask about the yearly extension of a non-immigrant O visa (Thai spouse). When we apply for the yearly extension at the immigration office, it is necessary that the Thai spouse (Thai wife in my case) accompany the applicant to the immigration office as well? Or can the applicant apply at the immigration office on his/her own (if we have all the documents required)?

I look forward to hearing any advice on this matter.

Hi All, I normally come in on an O marriage visa. As I work offshore I’ve never had to go beyond 3 months due to work contracts.

I’m back in Thailand now, on a 90 day marriage visa and will want to extend. As my work contracts don’t start again till 2021.

I heard I could get a further 60 days added to my current visa?

Or do I wait and apply for another 90 days later down the line?

Any help greatly appreciated 👍
