Hello, I am married to a Thai woman and I will be arriving in Thailand on a non-immigrant visa O staying with a Thai family. I will then apply for a marriage visa. I have my thai bank account and the deposit.

What documents do I need to provide to immigration? Because the problem is:

I registered my marriage in Canada and they required my Thai marriage certificate so I no longer have it in my possession. What should I do if Thai immigration requires this certificate? Is a copy accepted since I no longer have the original. Thank you.

Anyone has been in and out cambodia 🇰🇭 to reactivate DTV via flights? Any experience considering the Thailand Cambodia crisis

Hello !! I have a DTV visa. Based on my first entry, my 90 days would be up in October this year. However, I plan to leave Thailand in September for a trip and then return. Does the 90-day report continue counting from my first entry, or does it restart from the new entry date?

I currently have an e visa that has given me 90 days. I'm currently staying in Phetchabun at a Muay Thai bootcamp. I will have to leave before my time runs out due to my visa ending, and I wish to stay in Bangkok to see my friend for some time, so I need to extend by a month. Do I have to leave the country to do so, or can I visit my local government complex in Phetchabun?

Hello everyone.

I have a question about NON O Visa.

How many times you can apply for a NoN O based on marriage per year? Is there a limit? In example I will go this November for 3 Months to Thailand and would like to do the same next year in September 2026.

Thx for help. 🙏

Dear All,

For a certain period of time I might need to pay daily living in Thailand with foreign credit or debit / travel cards, due to visa and bank account opening procedures and lead times.

What solutions do you guys use? My main currency is USD or AED. What would you recommend for the first 6 months of moving to Thailand when it comes to paying essentials?

Thanks for your recommendations.

Chris

Big thanks to everyone who answered my questions and shared their experiences — your advice really helped!

For anyone curious about the process:

I submitted my documents on August 20, and on August 21 they asked me to provide recommendation letters and my portfolio. I sent everything in, and just 15 minutes later I got an invitation for an interview scheduled on August 27.

The interview itself lasted maybe five minutes and had a super relaxed, friendly vibe more like chatting with a friend. They only asked me to show proof of funds at the bank and my portfolio on my phone.

Just two hours after the interview, I got the notification that my visa had been approved. The whole process took exactly 7 days from submission to final approval.

Once again, huge thanks to everyone for your help and support! 🙌

Hey, has anyone applied for a DTV via the UK Thai Embassy as a non-UK citizen/resident and been approved? I already have a DTV but my girlfriend (from South Korea) is visiting the UK with me now, and I wasn't sure if she'd be able to apply for a DTV here instead of doing it in Vietnam like the majority of people do.

I had heard that some people applying in Western countries were being denied if they were not from that respective country? Any insights or experiences people have with the UK Thai Embassy for their DTV application as a non-UK citizen would be appreciated.

Thanks.

My wife and are thinking about getting a DTV but when we were last in Thailand about 3 years, we overstayed our Visa because of a flight issue and had to pay an exit fine. I believe we overstayed by one day, maybe two, beyond the grace period.

I assume it's just harder, and depends on the embassy what the result is in trying to get a DTV. That said, any insight would be helpful!

Also, would it matter if we had new Passports or is the overstay info kept in the Thai computer system?

I applied for my visa at the embassy in Cambodia on August 11th. I'm unsure the turnaround time on applications being processed, but I know some individuals that are still waiting and applied earlier than me.

Of course, the ongoing conflict is likely affecting the time for processing, but when I initially applied, I was told they were open.

I'd rather get my application processed sooner than later, so I'm debating on cancelling it and applying at Jakarta instead.

My concerns:

1. What if it took one more day and they finally decided to review it.

2. What if it takes a long time for them to cancel it.

3. Am I able to have two active DTV applications at once?

I don't really care about the fee, just speed.
