Hi, I'm planning to apply non-o visa based on marriage in Ho Chi Minh. All things are clear and all documents I have in place.

But my wife has changed her firstname. Original marriage certificate and her house book are on her previous name. She has an official document which shows that she has changed her name, also her new id card is with her current name!

So I'm just wondering how they will react in Ho Chi Minh Thai consulate.
Answer summary
The individual plans to apply for a non-O visa in Ho Chi Minh based on marriage but is concerned about potential issues due to their spouse's name change. The original marriage certificate and household registration documents have the wife's previous name, whereas her new ID card reflects her changed name. Comments from community members suggest bringing signed copies of the name change documents, as it is not unusual for Thai citizens to change their names.
