Before my post, just want to show my appreciation to the admins of this group, for letting people openly express their visa concerns/issues regarding Thailand without instilling the fear of having their posts cancelled, merely because admins can't solve them (unlike other groups).

I'd like to ask anyone out there who has experience with the Thai embassy in the Uk. I'm hoping to get a 90 day Non-O spousal/family visa when I visit there in March. On the website it just asks for "financial documents" (among others) when applying for the visa but it doesn't state what financial requirements they are looking for. So as each embassy is different, does anybody know the financial requirements for getting this kind of visa from the UK embassy? Thank you.

Here you go. Direct from the London Thai Embassy website.

Note that you now require the exact same insurance for a Non O retirement,as you do for a Non O-A visa

the 100,000 (now 50,000) covid coverage insurance is a requirement for everyone entering Thailand, doesn't matter what visa, tourist, ED, Non O.

@Wannikea ********
anybody entering Thailand on Non O or O-A or an extension of those visas now require $100,000 or 3.3 million baht health insurance which INCLUDES Covid cover. The $50,000 cover doesn't apply to those visas or extensions when entering Thailand.

Watch what's coming to extensions for retirement and for those applying for Extensions and applying for Non O visas inside Thailand.

It's going to be same as applying for Extensions of Non O-A visas

@Ron ******
only a proposal and the insurance requirement (not including covid entry coverage) only for OA visa
Ron *******
@Wannikea ********
it isn't only a proposal at all.

No worries though.

Carry on regardless.

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate you going to the trouble to get this, but this is for non-o/o-a/o-x retirement. I'm looking for a Non-o family/spousal visa. Of which I think the requirements are different.

Yes but the issue here is that where it says "Financial Evidence" it doesn't say what the actual requirements are. I have been working in Thailand under a non-b for 2 years which will get cancelled at the end of the year. I want to switch to this non-o visa but I don't know if they will accept Thai bank statements showing a monthly salary coming in. Or if there is a limitation to the monthly salary or what. I guess I'll just have to call them tomorrow, wondered if anyone on here had got it from the embassy there before.

Not in the UK. It was 3 months of bank statements showing a minimum balance of £1400 for the 90 day Non Imm O.

Thank you very much.

I’m not sure there is a set figure. They want to see you have enough funds available to support yourself and family while in Thailand. If you need to contact them it’s usually best via Facebook messenger.
