Can I apply for a marriage visa at the Krabi office while on a 60-day visa-exempt stay in Thailand?
Hi everyone! 👋
I recently got married to my Thai husband here in Thailand 🇹🇭 (we registered our marriage at an amphur). After that, I flew back to Singapore for about ten days, and now I’ve just flown back to Thailand.
As a Singapore passport holder, I’m here on a visa-exempt 60-day stay, so I still have a good amount of days left on my current entry.
Does anyone know if I can start the marriage visa process directly at the Krabi office while I’m on this 60-day stay? Or do I still need to leave and apply for a Non-Immigrant O visa from Singapore first?
Would really appreciate advice from anyone who’s gone through this recently, especially other foreign wives of Thai husbands. 🙏💛 Thank you

You need to get non O in Singapore first. Non O visa can only be apply outside Thailand.

So you are the genius why not share. So you mean you can get it in Thailand itself without leaving?

Incorrect. But it’s easier from outside Thailand.

Might work in your case. A foreign woman, married to Thai man, have a fast path not only for permanent residence but to full Thai citizenship, passport included. Something like 3 years.
My wife is Thai, I never got through those rules, you might already know that. Then, you can do any work you can or want to do, no limits.

I recently did all this and now have my 90day non o waiting to do extension.
You will need to make application ASAP as you need the bank account opening which you can't do without non o stamp in your passport. 400,000 needs to be in there for 2 months to apply for extension.
If I can help pm me

Ask the Krabi immigration office. If that's one of the offices that allows for non-O conversions in Thailand then yes you can do it. You'll need at least 15-21 days left on your existing stamp on the day you apply though.
