DTV & ..question..
A visa cannot be extended. A single entry Non O visa valid for 3 months, is 'USED' on entry. A multiple entry Non O visa valid for 1 year, becomes invalid on the 'enter before' date. Neither can be used again for entry to Thailand. You wouldn't need a re-entry permit if you had a 1 year Non O visa, it would be multiple entry, and it certainly wouldn't have been issued by Thai Immigration. On entry to Thailand using a Non O visa, you are granted a period of stay, the stamp will state 'permitted to stay' until (90 days). At Immigration, you then apply to extend that period of stay, which is a permit. From Thailand Ministry of Foreign Ministry of Affairs; https://www.mfa.go.th/en/page/general-information?menu=5e1ff6d057b01e00a6391dc5 7. Please note that the period of visa validity is different from the period of stay. Visa validity is the period during which a visa can be used to enter Thailand. In general, the validity of a visa is 3 months, but in some cases, visas may be issued to be valid for 6 months, 1 year or 3 years. The validity of a visa is granted with discretion by the Royal Thai Embassy or Royal Thai Consulate-General and is displayed on the visa sticker. 8. On the other hand, the period of stay is granted by an immigration officer upon arrival at the port of entry and in accordance with the type of visa. For example, the period of stay for a transit visa is not exceeding 30 days, for a tourist visa is not exceeding 60 days and for a non-immigrant visa is not exceeding 90 days from the arrival date. The period of stay granted by the immigration officer is displayed on the arrival stamp. Travellers who wish to stay longer than such period may apply for extension of stay at offices of the Immigration Bureau To apply to extend your period of stay in Thailand at Immigration, you complete form TM7: APPLICATION FOR EXTENSION OF TEMPORARY STAY IN THE KINGDOM. (Extending your period of stay that was initially granted on entry). You're then required to sign a couple of other forms; Acknowledgement of the Overstay rules and form STM2, acknowledging the terms and conditions for permit of temporary stay in the Kingdom of Thailand, which clearly states; 'I do hereby acknowledge the terms and conditions applicable to this permit'. Permits extending your permission of stay do not allow entries to Thailand as a valid visa would, which is why you have to purchase a separate re-entry permit to keep any permission of stay already granted, valid on re-entry. Read your stamps carefully and understand their meanings. Even though a single entry Non O visa is 'USED' on first entry, your Immigration status remains as 'Non Immigrant' provided you consecutively extend your period of stay. -
