Hi 

My marriage visa is due 11th November so I was going to go next week to avoid any queues next month. Korat. 

Has anything changed from last year. 

Will the visa amnesty effect my renewal. 

I will go the day before I take my wife and check the paper work but thought I would ask you guys too 

Thanks.

A quick remember... the OP is asking about Korat. Different immigration offices do have slightly different policies. If you didn't get an extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai national in Korat, your experience may be different.

yep.

I’ve done it 5 times in phuket and this will be the third in korat.

Phuket is more paper work. They want 2 copies of everything. Korat only 1.

But korat is definitely quicker.

Phuket was always full but probably not now.

To my knowledge, nothing has changed to get a one year extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai national.
