ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi again all. Even though my passport expires July next year will they give me another one year non O visa based on marriage in December or January? I'll obviously get a new passport nearer the time coming up to July.

If you are referring to UK passport holders having time added to new passports, sorry but not anymore.

That finished the 10th September 2018. Now you will only get the straight 10 years.

Sorry

If you visit a Thai Consulate or Embassy the answer is NO. You need minimum 6 months validity to obtain a Single Entry Visa, 1,5 year Validity for the 1 year visa.

If you apply fir a new passport now, the remaining months on your old passport are added to the validity of the new one.

Transfer your current extension etc to the new passport. Apply for renewal as normal.

Job done.
