TLDR : Answer Summary

You can apply for a non-O (married) visa either from outside or inside Thailand. If you apply from overseas, you'll receive a 90-day visa, which can then be extended for a year. If you apply inside Thailand, you'll initially receive a 90-day visa and can apply for an extension as it nears expiration. Additionally, there are options to apply for a one-year non-O visa at consulates in Savannakhet, Laos, or HCMC, Vietnam, which also starts with a 90-day entry.

NON-O RETIREMENT VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Go to the Retirement Visa Section for information on requirements, including age restrictions, financial requirements, and necessary documentation.
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.

Either. Get a non O from overseas and you’ll get 90 days. When that’s winding down you apply for the year extension.

Converting inside Thailand is similar, you first get the 90 day visa (2,000 baht) then get the extension when it’s near the end.

Another option if you don’t want to keep (or have) the 400k needed is to use the consulates in Savannakhet in Laos or HCMC in Vietnam where you can apply for a year long Non O. It lasts a year but on entry you get 90 days. You have to border bounce to get your next 90 days.
