I am currently on a 6 month METV from US . 5 months left .
Can I apply for a visa for being married to a Thai or do I need to
Get a different visa before applying for visa from marriage .
Answer summary
Yes, you can apply to change your current METV to a 90-day Non-O visa based on marriage to a Thai citizen. You will need to meet financial requirements, such as maintaining 400,000 baht in a Thai bank account or providing proof of a monthly income of 40,000 baht. After obtaining the Non-O visa, you can then apply for a yearly extension based on your marriage.

The way it works is you will apply to change your tourist visa to a 90 day Non-O visa based on marriage, then once you get that you will apply to get a yearly extension of stay based on marriage.
on any of the 60 day tourist visa entries you have you can go to the immigration office and apply for a 90 day Non-O visa based on marriage to a thai by meeting the financial requirements of 400K baht banked in a thai bank account in your name only or a notarized letter from your consulate stating you get 40K baht a month in income.
You'll also need other documentation too, I suggest going to your local immigration office and seeing what is required
