TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is applying for a one-year extension of their NON-O visa based on marriage to a Thai national. Immigration in Prachinburi requires a map of their house and property as part of the application. Comments suggest that the map can be hand-drawn with basic directions, and one user recommended using Google Maps to trace the location.

Not sure. Probably varies from office to office. Just make sure you’ve always got crayons. Just in case 😁

got it......do I have to do the map every year that I reapply for the extension or just this first time ?

I would just show your area, then a short bit with something like <22km> on a line, then the area round the immigration office. Either that or just from the town nearest your house to your house. They should know the area. They just want to see that you do too. The whole point of the hand drawn map is for you to show them that you do actually know the area and you’re not just pretending to live at that address.

the immigration department is about 22 kilometers away do you think that needs to be on the map of our property it would be hard to detail the neighborhood If I need to show that
Biff *******
Actually I don’t think they need all that much detail. You could probably draw it with crayons to be honest. As long as it shows that you know the route from your house to the immigration office with things like ‘next left after the big temple’ on it. You’ll be fine.

no signs in the neighborhood but we will ask the neighbors and check google maps......We are only about one kilometer off of highway 33

They may also be written on signs in the very streets themselves! :)

They probably do have names and I'd bet some thai in the area knows them ;)

Pin point your house on google maps & trace the roads over it, similar showing immigration dept. 🙏🏼
