Can an Australian citizen still get a 12 month multi entry "Non-Immigrant Visa "O" (For the purpose of visiting family member of a Thai nationality, a spouse of Thai national)" at the Savannakhet Consulate without the need to show funds and without insurance?

Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary
An Australian citizen can obtain a 12-month multiple entry Non-Immigrant Visa "O" at the Savannakhet Consulate, but this visa will only be issued if they are legally married to a Thai national. The consulate does not require proof of funds or insurance for this specific visa type. However, a 90-day single entry Non-O visa might be available for other reasons, such as having half-Thai children.

the year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa from Savannakhet will ONLY be issued IF you're legally married to a thai. They will not issue the year long one for any other reason; not visiting family, not raising half thai kids, not anything OTHER than marriage to a thai.

They will issue a 90 day single entry Non-O based on raising half thai children.

The form doesn't have multi, put in brackets (multi), pages 5000b. If all papers correct pick up next day. Make sure you have original marriage cert with you

it could be, but I'd say just get a free copy of it at the consulate when you show up.

That image is too small for me to tell if it's the one they're using now or not

Have you looked at the Savannakhet Thai Consulate website for its requirements?
