Hi everybody,

I want to know if someone have visa non-o for more 50 years and non-o for wife accompagnant less 50 years ?

I know it's easy with visa OA but it's not clear for visa non-O.

The shop near immigration in samui said yes from france can ask 2 visas Non-o but on line i dont find.

I am french 53 years and wife philippina 45 years.

Thanks
Answer summary
The conversation discusses the challenges of obtaining two Non-O visas, one for an applicant over 50 years old and a trailing spouse visa for a partner under 50. There's a consensus that while it's theoretically possible to get these visas, many embassies, particularly the Thai embassy in Paris, have made it difficult recently, often requiring applications to be made from the home country. Some embassies may only approve this arrangement if the older spouse holds a Non-OA visa instead.

The only way to do it is when you're in your home country, the over 50 spouse applies for the non-O for over 50 and the under 50 spouse applies for the non-O as a trailing spouse. A lot of embassies no longer offer this option though.

Some might offer it but only if the older spouse has a non-OA and not with the non-O.

Regardless of what is possible, if you're going to be using the Thai embassy in Paris you're probably screwed either way. We've received nothing but terrible reports about that embassy. They take multiple months to process visa applications and love to deny applications because the dates of travel that was submitted with the application already passed because they took so long.

Always was impossible to get in Thailand, now all nearby embassies have also stopped issuing the trailing spouse visa for someone on a non-o retirement visa. Most western ones have also followed suit
