ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi everyone. My 1yr Non-O marriage visa expires in March, I applied for the original visa and 1yr extension last time in Koh Phangan but now we’re living in Bangkok. Is there any reason why I wouldn’t be able to renew the visa in Bangkok?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster inquired about renewing their Non-O marriage visa in Bangkok after moving from Koh Phangan. Commenters confirmed that as long as the address is updated to Bangkok, the renewal can be processed at the main immigration office. They emphasized the importance of having proof of residence and the presence of the Thai spouse during the immunization process.

If you have registered your new address in Bangkok, then you can go to the main Bangkok Immigration office to process your new 1-year extension. I did this three years ago in reverse - original 1-year visa registered in Nonthaburi, now my yearly extension gets approved in Prachuap Khiri Khan.

These are the common found requirements for the one year extension of stay as Married to Thai.

Be sure you have changed your address where you are living to Bangkok.

Go to the CW Chaengewattana Immigration Office in Bangkok and ask for their requirements for the one year Non O extension of stay as Married to Thai.

You will have to show the PROOF of your residence in Bangkok. And your Thai wife should be with you when you visit the Thai Immigration office.

as long as you have the required 400,000 Thai baht in your Thai bank account in your name only...a full 2 months before you apply for the one year extension of stay... you are okay 👍
