Normally when I stay in Thailand it’s for 6 month and I get a 90 day tourist visa before I arrive then I go to immigration for the extra days, this year I’m married to a Thai and hoping to stay in Thailand permanently, what is the best way initially on entry to Thailand get the mattiage visa before arrival or can I just arrive at the customs get a 30 day stay then go to immigration to get the marriage visa

so dtv is made for Digital nomad tourists, not for married or mothers/fathers of thai children? true?

Any foreigner here buy condominium?Is real estate help you to process visa to stay there ?What need to use visa to stay permanent there in thailand?thank you for answering my question .

Hi.group thanks for adding me/Alan from Montréal Canada..want to move to Thaïlande..but it is complicated to know what to do what steps. & visa et.. would greatly aporeciate some info ..thanks

In a way, this is a visa related problem. Have had a tourist Sim for quite a while, and want to get a permanent number. Do I need to go and get a certificate of residence, (as I did for my Car and Bike licence). As proof that I am a permanent resident.

Advice needed please.

I want to get a yellow book and a pink card. I am looking at applying for permanent residency next year and am informed that having a yellow book makes the process easier.

Background: I am married to a Thai national and have been living and working in Thailand for two years. I have done my tax returns.

My understanding of applying for the yellow book from my local amphur where I enquired about the yellow book is that I need a translated and mfa certified copy of my passport.

I do not have time to travel to Bangkok to get this done so approached a legal firm who informed me that I must travel to the British embassy in Bangkok to get the passport certified first, tgen translated into Thai and then certified by MFA but online it says only a translated copy of my passport with MFA certification.

If I have to travel to the British embassy it’ll be some time before I can do that .

My question which is the correct way to do this and is there an agent who can do this so I don’t have to travel to Bangkok

Has anyone change to Marriage visa from DTV?

Do you need to cancel dtv, leave the country and come back first?

If you want to stay in Thailand without depositing 800,000 Baht in a Thai bank account I occasionally see people advise obtaining an OA visa, doing one border bounce after approx a year and then when the visa expires after nearly 2 years return to the UK and apply for a new OA visa to start the process again. I'm just curious if this can be done, for example, during a 1 month holiday or do you effectively have to stay in the UK for 183 days to re-establish yourself as a permanent resident before reapplying for the visa? The visa application does ask you to upload proof of permanent residency.

My original nationality is Brazilian and I have been living and working in Thailand for 4 years with a valid Work Permit. I am also married to my Thai wife.

I can speak Thai well but I'm still learning to read and write.

I have already bought a house to live in.

I would like to know if I already meet all the requirements to obtain permanent residency in Thailand.

If possible, I would like advice from a specialist agent who could help me with all the documentation and a quote for the amounts to be paid.

Hi looking for advice
