Has anyone applied for a non O based on marriage in Malaysia
I live in Thailand but when out of Thailand working my marriage visa expired.
I will return to Thailand on a visa exempt and then plan to have a 3 week holiday in Malaysia and apply online for non O based on marriage.
Is this possible?
Has anyone done it?
Cheers

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about the possibility of applying for a Non-O visa based on marriage while in Malaysia. They mentioned their current visa situation and their plan to return to Thailand. Comments provided insights into the application process at Thai consulates in Malaysia, highlighting potential processing delays and the option to apply for an in-country Non-O visa at immigration offices upon return to Thailand.

You could also check with your immigration office as soon as you hit the ground on the 60 day visa exempt entry. Most offices sell in country Non-immigrant visas and you might be able to just apply thru your office (unless it's one of the ones that can't do in country Non-Imm visas ๐ )

If you're up in Udon and they can't do it, I'd say GO to Vientiane and apply for the Non-O.
That consulate is wicked fast on 'regular' visas (Non-ED, O, B etc)..
you go to Lao, log in, upload proof you're in lao, upload your documentation, submit it, you get a confirmation you take to the embassy in person so you can pay for the visa and MANY people have reported getting the approval email before they even got back to their hotel after paying ๐ฎ or at least the very next day
Go there Sunday, apply online, Show up Monday to pay, and I bet you'd be approved by Tuesday the latest ๐
totally FALSE< vientiane and savannakhet are fine for 90 day single entry Non-O visa based on marriage or retirement or business, and they are wicked fast
you need to upload PROOF you're IN lao when you apply (visa / entry stamp) but anyone on a tourist visa can apply there without issue
you will be able to get the Non-O there no issue at all and way faster than most consulates in S/E Asia
you can also follow the route Tod Daniel proposed at first. Visit Immigration and apply for the "change of visa type" from the visa-exempt entry to a 90-days Non-Imm-O Marriage Visa. If you fulfill all requirements (financial- and marriage-proof wise) you will be issued the visa for 14 days under consideration. After this spell you pick up the stamp in their office. And as soon as there are 30 days left on the 90-days, apply for the 1-year Extension of Stay Permit based on being married to a Thai wife . . . .to find the requirements for the "change", click onto number 6 in this list. Visit Immigration Udon Thani for more info . . .
I don't think that Udon issues in country Non-Imm visas, they are one of the offices that don't do it BUT I did tell them to check with their office before they plan to go get the visa out of country

Since those consulates in Malaysia went to the eVisa online system they sure aren't know for speedy processing (like they used to be when you walked up to them)
I would say you could get the 90 day Non-O visa from Kuala Lumpur, Penang or Kota Bharu, but I'd plan on being their the processing time they post on their website (which you would have to look at for the one you select)
Shouldn't have much trouble other than the processing time. The system is straight foward, GO to malaysia, select the consulate based on where you're staying there, log in, upload proof you're in Malaysia (visa/entry stamp) upload the documentation, proof of funds, submit the application and pay online. Then you wait for them to email you as far as if it's approved or rejected.
