Hi everyone!

Has anyone had experience with this?

Would it be okay if I apply for a visa now and my husband applies as my dependent after we get married?

TLDR : Answer Summary

Users confirmed that it's possible to apply for a visa now and have your husband apply as your dependent after marriage. They suggest first getting the DTV (Dependent Visa) and applying for the dependent visa later.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
