Hi I am trying to find out what actual documents I need for my Non O Thai Marriage Visa, I am getting told different things from Immigration in Buriram, Foreign Affairs in Bangkok, Thai Embassy in London, etc etc, told by one of them that I need British marriage certificate translated and Passport both stamped by British Embassy, but they said that they did not do that. Another said I had to take them both back to the UK and get them both legalized. Bangkok Foreign Affairs insists that the Embassy in Bangkok does do it, Another one said I have to take my UK marriage certificate back to the UK and get the Thai embassy to certify it after it has been translated. Amphur office says I have to get my Passport translated and then certified at the British embassy? I think I am starting to go loopy
TLDR : Answer Summary
The process for obtaining a Non-O Thai Marriage Visa when married abroad involves a series of steps to certify your marriage documents. You must have your British marriage certificate certified by the authorities in Milton Keynes, then have it stamped by the Thai embassy in London. After obtaining the certified document, you need to translate it into Thai and get it certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Thailand. This certified marriage certificate is essential for registering your marriage in Thailand at the local Amphur (city hall), which will issue the Kor Ror 22 document necessary for your Non-O visa and annual extension. It's recommended to seek advice from expatriate groups for updated information, as the requirements can vary and are complex.
