ORIGINAL POSTER
Good morning! Has anyone gone to Savannakhet recently to obtain a one-year marriage visa? If so, can you let me know how many days it took and if there are any special requirements other than the standard documentation. Also, is it necessary for my Thai wife to accompany me? Thank you in advance for your information!

Hi Stuart, I went on a Tuesday. Arrived at 7:30, no queue, some other people waiting in coffee shop opposite. Don’t need your wife with you, just need to have the form, photo’s, marriage cert original ( and copies of front and back), copies of wife Id, wife tabien baan. Get wife to sign all copies relevant. Also copy of passport and 5k bhat
