I’m married to a Thai national and have been renewing my Non O for 3 years now every year. Is it possible just to extend my visa in country? Also I work all over and am only in Thailand no more than 1 month at a time and have outside income. Just wondering what the options were as a married couple..Also have a Thai bank account.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the possibility of extending a Non-O visa for a foreigner married to a Thai national, who frequently travels and spends limited time in Thailand. Community members highlighted that visa extensions must be applied for within the last 30 days of the stay, with necessary documentation, including proof of finances, such as a minimum of 400,000 THB in a bank account or consistent monthly income. Also noted was the potential convenience of obtaining a year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa instead, which may better align with the individual's travel schedule. Additionally, the importance of being present in Thailand for the in-home visit required for the extension was emphasized.
