Good day,

I’m looking at going to Savvanhkhet next month to get another multiple Non O visa due to marriage.

I haven’t been in a many years. Are the requirements still the same?

If someone has a list of documents needed please forward to me so I can prepare.

Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The requirements for obtaining a Non-O visa based on marriage have changed significantly due to the introduction of the eVisa system. Currently, you can no longer apply for a multiple entry Non-O visa in Savannakhet, as the system has moved to single entry visas only. Additionally, a new financial requirement stipulates that applicants must deposit a minimum of 400,000 THB in a Thai bank account in their sole name for at least two months prior to applying for an extension.

there is no other way around than depositing a minimum of 400.000 Thai baht in a Thai bank account in your sole name, if you want to apply for the next 1-year Extension of the Stay Permit

Ok.

Thanks for all the information.

They need to go back to multiple entry for e visa again. That’s what I used to do.

What Are the requirements for applying for extension at the immigration in Bangkok?

they don't issue any more multi entry 365-days multi entry married to a Thai wife Non-Imm-O visa in Savannakhet, since they switched to the E-visa system. Even if you had the slightest chance to still get it, it will come with the requirement of a 400.000 THB deposit on your Thai bank account. But I think this option is burned

I don’t have an overview, but at least they introduced the financial requirement of 400K baht seasoned for two months during last spring for Non O visa based on marriage. And you only get single entry as an e-visa as Graham states.

They’ve all changed to the evisa system which means you don’t go to the consulate to get the visa (although for Savannakhet you do go to pay). Multiple entry Non O is no longer an option.

You will be disappointed as they no longer do it with the recent introduction of the eVisa system
