Marriage Visa Question:

As I understand, I can either show a lump sum of 400,000 THB in a Thai account, or a monthly income of 40,000 THB to demonstrate I have enough money.

Does anyone know how many months of income need to be shown?

I plan to apply for a spousal visa next month, but I have only just managed to get a Thai bank account and have only topped it up with minimal funds. Is it too late?

Thank you,

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a Thai marriage visa, you must provide financial proof. You can either show 400,000 THB in a Thai bank account for at least 2 months prior to application or demonstrate a monthly income of 40,000 THB for 12 months. It's also noted that same-sex marriage is not recognized in Thailand, which may affect eligibility for the visa.

Not to be rude, but are you married to a man or a woman? I took the liberty to have a look at your profile. That's why I ask.

If he's getting married to a man, he won't qualify for a marriage visa/ non-o based on supporting a Thai spouse. Same sex marriage are not legal here.

@Benjamin *****
I have reasons to think he might be married to a man.

I'm assuming the OP is a man and is married to a woman. If the OP is a woman, then the financial requirements doesn't exist.

For monthly income you show the affidavit of your Embassy with a minimum income of 40.000 Thb a month. Or if your Embassy can not provide this service at least 12 months of foreign deposits of minimum 40.000 Thb into a Thai Bank account on your name Or the last three months tax and sso payments of minimum 40.000 Thb salary inside Thailand with the work permit

The lump sum needs to be in the account 2 months prior to the application.

The monthly payments must be shown 12 months.

Those are general statements.

Which immigration office will you be using?

What sort of visa do you have now?

What passport do you hold?

Of you can show zero, and leave the country every 90 days, that is also an option.
