Actually the question is wrong – because a „visa“ cannot be extended and will never get “extended”

Even when the paper pushing stamps stomping officers on Thai Immigration call it “visa extension”, all they do is extending a simple “stay permit”

As a “visa” is meant for use when ENTERING their beautiful country, it becomes invalid the moment you used it, so logically, it cannot be extended any more. A "visa" is for entering, and a "stay permit" is for staying in a country.

What you get stamped into your passport at the border, is an “admitted until” stamp, in simple words: “a stay permit”. It is NOT a “visa”

Now let’s assume that 95% of the people who answered you on Facebook, used the wrong wording as well and believe in “visa extensions” . . . . it sometimes makes you wonder if you can ever receive a thumb solid information in a Facebook Group.

It is like the roll of dice

And before I leave the discussion: Yes you can get your “visa” extended on immigration (sorry for using the wrong expression), just get up from your hocks and shuffle to the next immigration to listen to what they say

@เตเต้ *****

a visa lets you ENTER a country. The length of the allowed stay is dependent on the visa category. After you entered, you are inside the country with a stay permit. This is the little red coloured flag-like stamp that says "admitted until" and a date, in the upper right corner the visa-category you used will be marked. The visa ( actually ALL single entry visa) has become INVALID for another use. Therefore it cannot be extended anymore. Immigration can only extend your stay permit. A stay permit is not a visa. . . . a 90 days Non-Imm-O family or retirement visa becomes invalid for another entry/use after the first entry. You can however get a "1-year Extension of Stay Permit" before the 90 days stay permit expire. Immigration calls it "Visa Extension", however they actually do not "extend a visa". It is clearly stated on the stamp you receive - it says "extension of stay permit" - there is NO mention of any "visa"

@เตเต้ *****

do you realize that Immigration is using BAD, very bad English and the WRONG words? They do NEVER extend any visa. Technically it's not possible. The problem of Thai Immigration is, they do not make any difference between a stay permit and a visa, regardless the two are DIFFERENT from each other. All they do is "extending" stay permits. Stay permits are NOT "visa". The visa you entered with, becomes invalid for use upon entry! There is nothing left that can be extended, when a visa has been "used"

@Saty *****

you cannot get your visa extended. Visa can, technically, not be extended at all. The only thing Immigration will "extend", is your stay permit. A stay permit is NOT a "visa"

that's correct. Wife, her blue book and her ID card

you need a freshly printed Thai rose-bordered marriage certificate from the local Amphur. For BOTH the 60-day extension visit family. AND for the application to the "change of visa type" from exempt-visa to the initial 90-days Non-Imm-O family visa

find below the immigration website describing your plan. You case is number 6. Click on the text, open the pdf. It gives you all details on what to prepare for the application of the "change of visa type" from an exempt entry to the 90-days Non-Imm-O family visa. Keep in mind you are limited in time. You must deposit 400.000.- THB in your Thai bank account ASAP after you have arrived. You need a minimum 15 days left on your "admitted stay" stamp in order to be allowed to apply for the "Change". Visit immigration immediately and ask them for the handout of things you will need for the change. One thing is for sure: You must have a freshly printed Thai marriage certificate from the local Amphur. The visa will be given 15 days under consideration. After you have picked it up, you can apply for the "1-year extension of stay based on being married to a Thai wife" up from 30 days before the visa expires, and when the 400.000.- THB have sat in the account for 2 months. . . . . . . here's to ya: "6. Documents to be submitted for Change Visa – FOR PROVIDING SUPPORT TO OR BEING A DEPENDANT OF A THAI CITIZEN (SPOUSE VISA) (NON-O)" . . . . . . . .
