What are the requirements for a Non-O Visa application for American parents of a Thai PR holder regarding surname and marriage certificate?
Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice and assistance regarding a Thai visa process.
My boss is a US citizen who holds a Thai Permanent Residency (PR). He wants to sponsor his American parents to live with him in Thailand under a Non-O Visa. He has already prepared his legalized birth certificate, but we have two main concerns:
1 Mother’s Surname: His mother changed her last name to his father's after marriage. Will this cause any issues during the application?
2 Marriage Certificate: His parents got married in France. If a child with Thai PR is sponsoring their parents, is the parents' marriage certificate strictly required for the Non-O visa application?
Additional Question on French Documents:
If the French marriage certificate is indeed required and needs to be legalized, how can we request it?
We tried applying online, but the system requires a FrenchConnect account, which we don't have since we are not French citizens.
If anyone has experience with this or any helpful advice, please share. Thank you so much!

Answer summary
A US citizen with Thai Permanent Residency seeks guidance on sponsoring his American parents for a Non-O Visa in Thailand. He has concerns about his mother's surname change after marriage potentially affecting the application, and whether his parents' marriage certificate, issued in France, is required for the application. Additionally, he inquires about how to request legalization of the French marriage certificate since they cannot access the online system without a FrenchConnect account.
