What are the requirements for extending a visa in Thailand based on marriage or retirement?
I saw this photo for a visa extension based on marriage. I thought I saw one before for a visa extension based on retirement, but I can’t seem to find it now. Does someone have one they can post ?
Answer summary
The conversation discusses the search for visa extension documents related to marriage and retirement in Thailand. A commenter suggests visiting the local immigration office for the most accurate requirements, noting that specific offices may have varying processes. They share their experience with an immigration officer requiring a detailed map to their residence and suggest maintaining a substantial bank balance before applying.

Best to go to your local immigration office and ask for their requirements, every office can be slightly different. Just did my extension today and the "basic" map I've used for years was no longer sufficient, the officer wanted a map from the immigration office to my house. She ended up redrawing from scratch herself with me describing the route... And she also suggested that I should go back up to 800k 3 months before applying, I was just over 2 and she wasn't terribly happy about. Other than that it was painless , but every time they change staff (which happens frequently here) the rules seem to change a little too.
