ORIGINAL POSTERI'm an British male. I am married to a Thai male (who also holds a British passport).
It is our intention to retire to Thailand in about 4 or 5 years.
Does anyone know if a marriage based visa is accepted based on same-sex marriage with a Thai nstional? I have heard that a "civil partnership" is likely to be introduced to Thailand soon. Is it advisable to wait for that to see how the laws change?

TLDR : Answer Summary
A British male in a same-sex marriage is inquiring about the acceptance of a marriage-based visa for retirement in Thailand. He is considering whether to wait for the potential introduction of civil partnerships in Thailand, which may affect immigration laws.
