@Brandon ********
did you check properly? LTR is five different types, each with its specific requirements

@Mark ********
I am on retirement extensions since 17 years. It takes me 20 minutes on the bank and 25 minutes on Immigration to get issued a new 1-year extension, buy a re-entry permit and make my 90 days report, all on the same day. What's so complicated about it are the barstool heroes who make it more complicated than it actually is 😂😎😂😎

@Jan *****************
but isn't the admitted stay stamp still valid even after the visa validity expired? Or is the admitted stay stamp connected to the multi re-entry permit, and once the visa validity expires, the admitted until stamp becomes invalid as well?

not even this is fully correct . . . .Jan, keep in mind: he can't do anything, not only wait until the visa validity expires, but also has to wait until the most recent "admitted stay" stamp has expired! This could be a date a few days or weeks past the expiry of the visa validity. He can't apply for a new visa or enter visa-exempt unless this still valid stamped stay permit has expired

he won't be able to apply for ANY OTHER visa or able to change anything on his last stamped stay permit. This is ABSOLUTELY impossible within the O/A-visa validity, because in the first year he got a multi re-entry permit included with the visa. . . . he is still in the first year UNTIL August 2026 - so will have to wait until the visa validity has expired, before he can proceed

Pete Smith you won't be able to apply for ANY OTHER visa or able to change anything on your last stamped stay permit. No matter what you do - you FIRST need to make your existing Non-Imm-O/A visa INVALID before you can apply for another visa. This is ABSOLUTELY impossible within the O/A-visa validity, because in the first year you got a multi re-entry permit included. . . . You will have to wait until the visa validity has expired!

watch your wording! What you emphatize is not a "visa run". It is just a "border run". A visa run is something you do enter a neighbour country to apply for a visa through the e-visa system of the Thai embassy. . . so much for handing out wrongly worded "barstool advice" to others
