TLDR : Answer Summary

The duration of marriage required to apply for a Dependent Visa (DVT) to include a spouse in Thailand is not explicitly stated in the regulations. However, it is essential to have all necessary marriage documentation prepared to prove the legitimacy of the marriage at the time of application.
