, Membership is not stopped or postponed. you will keep using other privileges on another visa. just not using visa part of the membership. When membership is expired when it’s supposed to be expired.

@Nigel *******
, you should be able to apply for re-entry permit immediately after you get your extension in your passport.

Thank you for the update.

Dear members, this is the requirements list for a 60-day family visit extension at CW, Bangkok. NOT for a 1-year extension based on spouse or parent to a Thai, NOT for other offices.

@Nigel *******
, then all you can do is try CW. as you don't have extension yet, there still is possibility of getting there.

, Maybe OP has to consider, as it depends on what actually "my wife does not qualify for her own O-A visa" part means. In most requirements same to Non-O retirement visa
Ellie *******
You can apply for Non-O based on being a spouse to a Thai national (Spouse and Family Visa) or Non-O retirement. Both are single entry visas valid for 90 days and give you 90 days on entry. Then you can apply for 60 days family visit extension at the local immigration office. No border run for 4-5 months.

Do you mean Non-OA visa for retirement? That visa requires you to have specific insurance to apply. But other Non-O single entry visas don't require insurance.
