is Andrew King making up false stories. One week to get a non o in London . It's the same as Savannakhet. This creates scaremongering and uncertainty for what reason I'll never know.Ken *******

If you do have to show finacial proof what do they want monthly or a lump sum in your account and how much is a pass?
Ken *******
I needed finacials when applying through Liverpool Consulate who passed it on to London July 2016
Ashley ********
I have never needed to show it for a non o visa based on marriage in London. That's all I can say.
Andrew ******
Ashley Austen do you have to show financial in London?
Ashley ********
For your information in London the building is attached but separate. You have to walk down some narrow flighted stairs . It's completely cut off from the embassy although it's still part of the embassy building. I know might sound strange hope everyone understands
Tod *********
@Pa**
, nobody gets into the thai embassy anywhere. You use the consular services section. Now it might be in the actual area where the embassy is or it could be a stand alone building like hull, and savannakhet are.
Ashley ********
Once again
@Tod ********
thank you for your words of wisdomAshley ********
Embassy. I go there every year and will go there again in July for my 3rd non O. ( all from the same place)
I will update the group in July. O
I will update the group in July. O

In london is it a thai embassy or consulate

@And***
, they did change the rules and stopped hull from issuing those year-long, mutil entry non-o's based on marriage. Now they all go thru London, BUT it most definitely doesn't take a week to get that visa from them..:/ I concur with other posters as far as dressing smartly at Savannakhet, they won't care in the least. You either provide the documentation they require to get the visa or they won't accept your application..

@Fr***
is this non-O based on marriage to Thai or to a foreigner working in Thailand? I wonder if this also apply for the latter caseGigi *********
Many thanks
@T**
! I will give my experience once I get through it!Tod *********
@Gigi ********
nope, there are no financial requirements when you're 'piggy-backing' onto a foreign spouse because they legally work here. The company they work for writes a letter stating they know you're getting an extension tied to your spouse and it's okay. I don't know if you can get the 90 day Non-O issued inside the country at the immigration office OR if you'd have to go to a thai consulate to apply for one AND then get the yearly extension at the immigration office after that,
Gigi *********
Thanks a lot guys and Tod Daniels would you know if I need 400K in the bank to apply for Non-O based on my wife work permit?I am not sure if this apply to all non-O based on marriage or to just the one based on marriage to Thai citizen.
Frank **************
ORIGINAL POSTERThe other thing is, if you legal working here inThailand how do you get a workpermit. Not living here before ( I assume ) . Company / School ?

ORIGINAL POSTER@Tod ********
I thought the same I never heard about these.Tod *********
I don't know of ANY thai consulate in the area which will issue a year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa based on being the spouse of a foreigner legally working here.
All you'll get is a 90 day single entry Non-O, then you go to the immigration office and they'll give you an extension of stay that's sync'd with your spouse's. In essence you "piggy-back" onto their extension.

none of that matters. They can't even see you from behind their window. They don't look at your face or anything. You line up, hand in your documents and leave. The line up is longer than be procedure. Other places within Thailand care about your clothing.Ken *******
I did a border bounce today at Nong Khai/Lao my multi o expires 1st June 2017 so got the last 90 days..no problems :-)
Paul **********
I am near the end of my multiple entry non o visa can i go there to get another instead of returning to england? And how much is it there?
Ashley ********
Will do later okay
Paul **********
@Ashley *******
could you pm me the details of the place in london i am their next month!Ashley ********
Yes it does take about a week if you send from Hull. They need to forward to London and post back. But this is not what you said. If you apply directly in London it takes 2 days.
Andrew ******
Information I got back from The hull Thai consulate via e-mail about how the process in London works
Ashley ********
@Andrew *****
please explain. In London you submit one day ( e.g. Monday)and pick it up the next (e.g Tuesday between 11 and 12) I've never heard it taking 1 week. Please elaborate. If you submit on Friday you will have to wait until the following Monday. One week plz give detailsAndrew ******
I'm going smartly dressed when I go savannakhet in my black shoes, creamed trousers and cheque white collard shirts
Andrew ******
Well, I got mine in Hull Thai consulate just before the rules changed last September. You can get another one at the London Thai consulate but it can take up to a week to get it. I was going to go back to England myself but no point as it'll be easier and cheaper going to Laos
Paul **********
More strict in what way?
Andrew ******
@Paul *********
you can't get another none immigrants o visa in England now because they've changed the rules and made it more stricter, but apparently its easy in savannakhetFrank **************
