Can I obtain a marriage visa in Thailand without meeting the financial requirements?

Hi, I am currently in BKK on a tourist single entry of 30days, will I be able to fly to Mukdahan and then to travel Savannakhet to have my Multiple-Entry Non-O Visa (based on marriage) done within the 30days? Please advise, thank you!

If you’re a woman, no financial requirement. (Answering the question) 😛

Don't know where you're from but if American and you're just looking for the visa, not extension of stay, when you apply in the USA you only need to show a bank balance of $700

Depending on your nationally for some visa extensions it's possible to use an affidavit of income in lieu of seasoned money in a Thai bank account. U.S. and Australian are the two I'm aware of.

First off you need to understand there is NO such thing as a marriage visa. Period end of story.

There are TWO things that every Tom, Dick and Somchai (foreigner and thai alike) call a marriage visa

One is a year-long, multi-entry Non-Immigrant Type O <- (O meaning other) visa based on marriage which is issued from a thai consulate. On this visa you exit/re-enter the country every 90 days to get another 90 day stamp for the year the visa is valid for.

At present there are three thai consulates in S/E Asia which will issue this visa without proof of financials. They are Savannakhet Lao, Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam & Seoul South Korea.

The other "marriage visa" that people refer to is actually a 90 day Non-Immigrant Type O visa AND a yearly extension of stay based on marriage that you get at the immigration office. You must supply the correct documentation and meet the financial requirements of either 400K baht in a thai bank account in your name for 2 months before you apply for the yearly extension

OR

a notarized affidavit of income from abroad letter from your consulate stating you get 40k baht a month in income.

OR

legally work here and turn in pay stubs and tax statements showing 40K baht in income from inside the country.

Sorry that I stopped the comments on this thread for a bit.

Gimme a minute or three.

BUT know this it is NOT allowed on the group to suggest ways to circumvent the rules when geting extensions inside the country.

Was there in February and it was ok

Well I hope you know that the salary doesnt have to be from a job within Thailand and I guess almost everyone have a job in their home country and that is enogh.

The Thai consulate in Savanaket don’t ask for financial documents

One year multiple entry

Every agent will do this for you.

Set up account, place funds ect ect.

For a large fee of course

Do you mean a one year extension of stay based on being married to a Thai national ?.
