Can I apply for a spouse DTV visa in Thailand with a notarized document proving our partnership without marriage?

Hello

Has anyone tried to apply for a spouse dtv visa, by showing an official and notarized document from your home country, stating that you are spouses without marriage? Our home country acknowledges such relationship and considers it equal to marriage.

If you have such experience, especially in Vietnam, please share!

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the possibility of applying for a spouse DTV visa in Thailand using an official document from their home country that recognizes their relationship as equivalent to marriage, without actually being married. A comment indicates that, in Thailand, a marriage certificate is typically required for visa applications related to spouses, dismissing the possibility of using a common law relationship.

For Thailand you always need a certificate of marriage for anything to do with a spouse. No jumping over a broom stick in a Buddhist country. I think you are talking about a common law wife/husband. No!
