ORIGINAL POSTER

Do original documents need to be sighted when applying for a dependant visa?  (I'm unsure at this stage if I will apply in Thailand or at an embassy / consulate)

I've only got a *certified copy* (by a police officer) of my marriage certificate.

What's required / sufficient?

* Sighting the original marriage certificate

* Sighting my certified copy

* Submitting a signed copy of my certified copy

TLDR : Answer Summary

When applying for a dependant visa in Thailand, the requirements regarding document submission can vary. It's essential to check the specific requirements on the website of the Thai Embassy where you plan to apply. Generally, original documents need to be sighted, but some embassies accept certified copies. It's also noted that you should never sign original documents; only copies should be signed before submission.

NO you NEVER EVER sign original documents 🙁

At some embassies you (and or your thai wife) sign the COPIES of them you submit to the embassy for the visa

You have to look at a website of a Thai Embassy in a country where you like to go to apply for the Non Immigrant O visa based on being dependent on your wife with a long time stay inside Thailand.

What documents are needed are mentioned on that website, you have to do some research by yourself.
