Jeff -Would you mind me asking if those 4 in a row were extended at local Immigration?

You do not need to provide exact dates when applying for a re-entry permit. Note that the re-entry permit will be valid until the end of your current permission to stay, and when you reenter, the admitted until date on your new permission of stay will be the same as your current one.

The penalty is a 5 year ban, if you get caught even with one day of overstay.

No, she cannot get a 30 day extension of a permission of stay from a single entry non O visa.

@Kurt *******

She may be able to extend at Immigration if she meets the requirements for whatever extension it is she is applying for. That we have no idea of.

A 60 day extension is generally granted for the purpose of visiting thai spouse / thai child. How do you know she is not applying for a 12 month extension for retirement purpose. Or for a dependent extension.

Not by border run, once she exits, unless she gets a reentry permit, she can no longer enter on that visa nor extend it.

Extensions are done at local Immigration, with supporting documents that vary according to the reason of extension.

Technically it's 30 days. The solutions are:

- low cost throwaway ticket to nearby destination ~ 1,000 baht with airport tax recoverable (Air Asia, Thai Lion Air etc)

- rent a real ticket for 48 hours on flyonward.com for about 10 dollars.

- solution that involves knowledge of editing software, that I cannot go into on a public forum.

- argue with the airline to accept a ticket in 60 days or no ticket by signing an indemnity agreement that you would be liable for all cost of repatriation should you get rejected entry.

Richard Payne Individual investor that opens up a hospital or a welness center for a minimum investment of 20 million baht and/or his executive staff working within that company that get paid a minimum of 200,000 baht per month. The ones that do not make that threshold can use non B visas and work permits.

All the information is available on the UK Thai Embassy's website, as well as on BOI's.

@Richard ******

it's for people that wish to invest in a number of limited targeted industries or executives getting paid a minimum salary of 200,000 baht. I don't quite understand your previous question could you elaborate?

But i did find out something interesting thanks to

@Richard ******

. The cost of a 4 year smart visa is....(drum roll)... 1,000 pounds. (LOL)
