Ok, so I have a complicated question. I have recently learned that Mexican citizens can only get 15 days in Thailand and that can only be extended by 7 days. My wife is Mexican, and I am American. She does not have a visa for the USA. I am an ESL teacher with a NonB (work permit) I was wondering if my wife will be able to stay under my NonB visa/WP or will it depend on her passport and not her marital status?
TLDR : Answer Summary
A Mexican citizen, married to an American ESL teacher with a Non-B visa, can potentially obtain a Non-O visa as a dependent. This visa dependence on the Non-B is contingent upon the employer supporting the application with the necessary documentation. The application must be submitted at a Thai embassy or consulate outside of Thailand, and the nationality does not affect her visa eligibility but her marital status does. It's essential for the employer to assist in the visa obtained and any subsequent extensions.
