Can I get a Non-O visa in Thailand as the wife of a US citizen on a retirement visa?
My husband is from the US and we migrated here in Thailand, and he is getting a retirement visa, can he get me a Non -o as his wife?we have 45 days visa. Thanks for the kind responses if ever.
Answer summary
The question addresses whether a wife can obtain a Non-O visa in Thailand if her husband is receiving a retirement visa. According to a comment, the option may depend on the specific immigration office, with Phuket having a recent policy change that allows for a 90-day Non-O visa issued to spouses. It's recommended to check with the immigration office where the husband is processing his retirement visa or consider applying at a Thai consulate in a nearby country once he has a year extension.

Unless you're in Phuket (which recently changed policy and now will issue 90 day Non-O visa for reason of trailing spouse to people on retirement visa) no other immigration office I know will do it.
All you can do is ask the immigration office where your husband is getting his visa/extension processed IF they offer it. Otherwise you'll have to find a thai consulate in a nearby country that will do it once he has his year extension.
