Hi,
My soon-to-be husband (on May 31st) is working here with a proper visa extension and work permit. I'm currently on the COVID extension.
I saw yesterday that it's completely possible to change from the covid extension to the NON-O Dependent Spouse visa.
What are the typical requirements for this? (At Chaengwattana)
From what I understand, you first receive a 2-week under-consideration stamp, then the 90-day visa, then can apply for the year extension. Is this correct? And are there any additional requirements for getting the year extension?
Thank you!!
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is asking about the process of converting from a COVID extension to a NON-O Dependent Spouse visa in Thailand. They are planning to marry and are currently on a temporary extension. The common process involves receiving documentation from the spouse's employer, submitting various documents including a marriage certificate, and applying for the NON-O visa after a minimum of 15 days on the current extension. This entails receiving a 14-day under-consideration stamp before finally obtaining a 90-day visa. After that, they can apply for a yearly extension, with a recommendation to consult specific forms and requirements at the immigration office.
