Opossum Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Hi my brother in law let his 1 year multi entry marriage visa expire but can stay based on an letter of embassy. The letter of the embassy will be very likely issued another few times looking at the situation in Europe. But he is looking for a more longterm solution. As far as I know, he can not ask for an extension of stay based on an expired visa. Is there a solution for his situation? thx and best regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4evermaat Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) - can you be more specific whether he had a non-o visa or a 1-year extension of stay with multiple re-entry permit. - What date did the last permission to stay start/expire? the amnesty period should cover him from from 26 March until the end of this month (October) Edited October 18, 2020 by 4evermaat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No explanation needed. He already clearly stated that it regards a multi-entry visa based on marriage, not an extension made at an immigration office.

He could apply for a one year extension of stay based upon marriage if he has 400k baht in a Thai bank for 2 months or proof of 40k baht income. He can also apply for a 60 day extension to visit his wife if has not applied for one since his most recent entry to the country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really did not say that clearly since many people incorrectly call a extension of stay a visa and if they have a re-entry permit they call it a multiple entry visa.

I guess that depends on how a person understands what they read. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opossum Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 Yes, it's a "multi-entry visa based on marriage" which has been expired and not an extension of stay. It has been exprired while he was asking for the embassy letter. Things are complicated, the way it happened and I don't want go to the details. So I will tell him to do the extension of stay as proposed. Thank you for your support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew45 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Not so sure about this letter of the embassy. This is what my embassy said to me 4 days ago "Following the further recent extension of the Visa Amnesty by the Thai Authorities, the Embassy of _____ is awaiting clarification from the Immigration Bureau on the particular requirements for this further extension of permission to remain in Thailand for non-nationals. We will advise further when the Thai Immigration Authorities clarify the position." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it´s just me, but when a person post they have a visa, I read it like that. Same when a person post they have extension/or permission to stay, I read it and understand it like that. Is your opinion that I should believe that people don´t know if they are talking about a visa or an extension in a foreign country, so that they just sign the first thing that comes to mind.

Sorry once again. Not knowing what you talk about while travelling or living in foreign countries, is what I call stupid. Nothing I am ever going to get used to just because I´ve been here long enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
