Hey this year I am doing my marriage extension on my Non-O, I am Iranian I read on the website some countries require background clearance from police before doing extension, we did this last year I thought it's only once and now we moved to Bangkok, is that normal and what docs i need to take to police? I found this using ChatGPT:
* Valid Passport
– Original + photocopy of the information page and latest visa page.
* Thai Visa
– Current visa stamp in passport (copy the page).
* Letter from Embassy or Immigration
– A letter requesting a police clearance (e.g., for visa extension or background check).
* Work Permit (if applicable)
– If employed in Thailand, bring a copy of your work permit.
* Marriage Certificate (if applying under marriage visa)
– Original + copy (translated into Thai or English and certified if not in either).
* Spouse's Thai ID Card and House Registration (if applicable)
– If you are married to a Thai citizen.
* Photos
– Two (2) passport-sized photos (1 inch or 2 inches accepted).
* Fingerprint Card (optional if applying in person)
– Can be taken at the Police Clearance Center directly.
* Fee
– 100 THB for the certificate (standard processing in 15 working days).

TLDR : Answer Summary
An expat, originally from Iran, is inquiring about the documentation required for obtaining a police clearance to extend their Non-O visa while living in Bangkok. They are unsure if this is a repeat process, recalling that they completed it last year. They list the necessary documents for the police clearance, including a valid passport, current visa stamp, and marriage certificate, amongst others. Comments suggest that certain nationalities need this clearance and recommend checking specific requirements based on their immigration office.
