Hello, my wife is going to extend her non-o(spouse of thai husband). Few questions

We live in Bangkok, Should we go to Chaeng Whattana goverment building or IT Laski for this extension

The TM-30 was filed before the visa stamp was issued, we didn't move but do we need to file again?

Do I (thai husband) need to provide proof of income?

Any current document list available?

Visa expires Sept 26,  is there a cutoff date for extending visa?

You go to the main immigration office at the government complex (Building B) on Chaengwattana Road

Shouldn't need to file it again, but take a copy of that TM30

𝟯. 𝗗𝗼 𝗜 (𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗶 𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗱) 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲?

You might need to show you're working, BUT on this one I don't know and you should go out to Chaengwattana and ask them before you actually go apply so you can get the documents you need

𝟰. 𝗔𝗻𝘆 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲?

This is a general list of what can be asked for for marriage to a thai extensions (just ignore the 400K baht financial requirements as it's not applicable for foreign females married to thai males)

𝟱. 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗮 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝟮𝟲, 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮 𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗳𝗳 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗮?

You can apply for a new extension in Bangkok when you have 45 days or less left on the current stamp. SO if the extension expires Sept 26th you could have applied any time after Aug 12th

There is no reason to wait until this stamp runs out as the new year extension will be added to the current expiration date.

You apply in Section L1, pay the 1900baht, get a 21 day under consideration stamp, then go back to C/W this time Section L2 on that date and get the year extension inked in

@Benhamin *******

you're THAI so you aren't needing a visa 😛 It's only if there's a family applying for the visa

It's just your foreign wife you want the "single person" choice
