ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
To obtain a visa under your retired husband's visa in Thailand, you need to follow several steps. First, your husband must secure an extension of stay based on his retirement status (being over 50). You will need certified translations of your marriage certificate to apply for a Non-O visa, which may need to be processed outside of Thailand. Ensure that your marriage certificate is legalized by your embassy and possibly approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bangkok. You cannot apply for this visa while inside Thailand; you’ll need to find a nearby country that issues Non-O visas for trailing spouses. It’s advisable to coordinate your visa extension with your husband’s schedule to avoid discrepancies. If this seems complex, you may consider hiring a visa agent for assistance.
