I'm doing my Non-O Marriage yearly extension tomorrow, and there's a new requirement for 4 photos, up from just the old pic outside of the house.

I've heard of people being sent back to take new photos because they weren't acceptable, so trying to minimize that risk.

The required photos are:

1. In front of house showing house number - full body,

1. In living room,

1. In kitchen,

1. In bedroom.

Does anyone have experience with Phuket immigration refusing certain photos, and what were the reasons?

Thanks in advance.

Answer summary

The user is preparing for a Non-O Marriage visa extension and notes that there is a new requirement for four specific photos: one in front of the house showing the house number (full body), one in the living room, one in the kitchen, and one in the bedroom. They seek advice on acceptable photo standards from others who have gone through the process, especially regarding experiences with Phuket immigration. Comments indicate that these requirements have been standard in other areas like Bangkok and Pathum Thani but vary slightly, with some suggesting that bedroom photos may not usually be requested.

These have been pretty much the requirements in Bangkok for a couple of years, the only other stipulation is they are not 'Selfies'.

@Tony *******

right, and I remember one couple who had their photo in front of their address number sign denied because they were pointing at it 😛 No pointers either

Always amazing that on a Sunday, when Immigration Offices are closed, a staff member informs all expats that there are new requirements.

Post on a Phuket group and ask for sure

BUT

As rule it's you two standing in front of the address, a couple of you in the kitchen, living room, etc, never heard of them asking for a photo of people in the bed room.

I wasn't aware of the new photo requirements at all until I went in on Friday for the list. I've taken the pics as they request, so will wait and see what happens tomorrow.
