Submit application form, passport and copies. After a brief review, the obligatory question about the original marriage paper. Presented: Ok everything ok. 5000 baht please you can pick up your visa tomorrow from 2.00 pm.

We do NOT have a Thai Marriage Paper (Khor. Ror. 3) not now and never had in 21 years. Only the German one with the

legalized translation into Thai testified by the German Embassy.

will have a nice day in savannakhet enjoy Beer Lao dark and the baguettes.
