I would expect any foreign person staying in Thailand to know the name of the visa that he is on and its implications. Otherwise ding dong.

There are no new Immigration rules.

I have never heard of a Wedding Visa. Perhaps you mean a Marriage Visa or an extension of stay based on being married to a Thai national?

I doubt very much that you came on a visa on arrival. I suspect that you came on a Visa Exempt Stamp which is not any kind of a visa. Thai Immigration is currently allowing 1 x 60 day visa exempt entry plus a 30 day extension and then one more 60 day visa exempt entry plus a 7 day extension. But to be on the safe side, in your shoes, next time I would apply for a visa appropriate to my reason for stay.

I think that it will become clearer over the next weeks.

There is no 7 day exension in Thaiiland. However, if you apply for a 30 day extension and itt is denied by Immigration, then you get a stamp in your passport advising that you must leave Thailand within 7 days - but it is not an extension of any description..

There are no legal limits on visas. As long as you apply for a visa that is appropriate to your reason for staying inThailand, no problem.

Easy to do ourself. If you are over 50 years of age, apply for a Retirement Visa form Thai Embassy in Canada.

There are no new rules. Just more ridged enforcement of existing rules about Visa Exempt Entry.
