Just went to Chaengwattana for my visa Extension based on Marriage

They requested a few things in addition to the requirements listed in the handy summary (attached):

1. Photocopy of ALL pages of Bank Passbook, not only the final page with the current date line item

1. Photocopy of all previous marriage visa extensions in your passport

1. 2 color copies (not 1) of family photos (wife was gently scolded for wearing shorts in the photos and told to avoid it next year 🫡)

1. STM2 form - "Acknowledgement of Staying in Thailand" ([members only])

1. Form "Acknowledgement of Overstay Penalty" ([members only])

The appointment system is a godsend!  The process only took 15 minutes as a result.  [members only]

Actually, those acknowledgments and a statement are not new. I/Os have been using those kinds of forms for several years now.

had provided samples in the files section of this group as "3 forms.pdf".

I would think that is the bank statement? Where you must show how much in the bank ?

@Francis *******

nope, pretty obscure document, it's literally just for wife to fill out as a guarantor of husband and it's called "statement"
