Is an Australian Marriage Certificate accepted for Thai visa applications, or does it need translation to Thai?

Is it possible to get a 1 year multiple entry non Imm O based on marriage from Vientienne and Savannakhet?

@Pe***

, you do not get a 30 day visa on arrival or a 30 day tourist visa you get into the country on a 30 day visa exempt entry stamp.

You need 15 days or more left on that stamp to apply for a 90 day Non-O inside the country. You cannot get a one week extension because there is no such thing, that is an extension denied 7 days to get out of thailand stamp for 1900baht and you can't apply for any visa once you get that stamp.

You will have a far easier time taking the marriage certificate, the thai i/d of your wife and her house book listing to the thai consulate in either Vientiane or Savannakhet Lao and getting a 90 day Non-O visa issued in a day.

You turn in your paperwork one morning and you pick up the passport with the visa in it the next afternoon. Neither of those consulates require proof of funds, OR any other documentation than what I mentioned.

Then once you come back on that 90 day visa you can apply for the yearly extension at your immigration office.

Rmemeber IF you're going to try to get a 90 day Non-O inside the country at the immigration office you need to go there FIRST and see if your marriage certificate needs translating into thai and certified by the MFA office here. It goes without saying you'd also have to meet the financial requirements

, Like I said your australian marriage certificate will be accepted at a thai consulate in another country to get a 90 day Non-O visa based on marriage to a thai

And you need to check with the immigration office you're going to use for your yearly extension to see what if anything needs to be done with it so you can use it here. I mentioned what some offices required already

Chaengwattana accepted our UK marriage certificate in English, although it had to be legalised and the legalisation had to be certified by the Thai Embassy in London.

you can use it to get a Non-O visa at a thai consulate in another country without a problem.

Now as far as getting a yearly extension of stay inside the country some offices want it translated into thai, certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Office AND want you and your wife to go to your Amphur and register that a thai got married abroad with the Kor Ror 22 form (ค.ร. ๒๒) too. Check with the immigration office where you will be getting the extension of stay

and are you trying to get a visa at a thai consulate in another country or inside the country at the immigration office?
