ORIGINAL POSTER

Has anyone applied for a DTV spouse visa with a Thai marriage certificate? If so, was it approved?

My partner and I are both from Europe, and are thinking of getting married here in Thailand (I’m here on a DTV, they are on a tourist visa). Then go out of the country to apply for my partner’s DTV as my spouse. Just wondering if a Thai marriage certificate would suffice.

Since your situation is quite unique, the best answer is to mail the embassy you intend to apply at, and ask them whether a Thai certificate would be enough or not. Every embassy is different when it comes to this sort of thing
