unless you intend to leave the country and return within the under consideration period, as your current re-entry permit is no longer valid in that period, and you end up paying twice to cover the existing extension.

i think this is a uk/usa date confusion, i suspect he is from UK and marriage visa will have expired on 5th Jan, prior to his arrival on 30th Jan.

Watch the video at home first (from DLT site not utube) and take a print out of QR code with you as proof you've watched it fully, as part of your documentation.

Dont wait for the approval to start transfering 40k, as you may not have 12 months of payments recorded at the point you apply for 2nd year extension, (you may only have 11).

@John *******

agree, the drop dead date for getting the stamps transfered at immigration is prior to the next 90 day reporting, and the TM30 after arival should reflect the new number.

The 3yr non-b doesn't support work permits for employment in Thailand. It is basically to allow foreign nationals to fly in do some meetings, give some training, sign some deals etc, multiple times in a 3 yr period.

I'm on a multi-entry extension, but it appears this ceases when you apply for the next yearly extension (not the original date), as each year after submitting the paperwork i have to get an additional single re-entry stamp to cover the under consideration period just in case i have to make a trip. (Company pays, so not my money being wasted).

These have been pretty much the requirements in Bangkok for a couple of years, the only other stipulation is they are not 'Selfies'.

@Andrea *******

, no you can renew upto a year after expiry. But in that year you cant use it to drive as it has expired. It just means that your renewal is still the next logical step. EG your on 2yr, your renewal would still be the 5yr. If you went to renew after the year you would be starting again with the 2yr.
