When on a non-o based on marriage to a Thai woman Is it allowed that a bank account drops under the 400k for a short period about 5 months prior to a new extension?

Thank you for all advices given here.

My experience applying Non Immi O based on marriage thru e-Visa Thai Embassy Kuala Lumpur.

27th July - Submitted application

28th July - Thailand public holiday

29th July - Requested additional document, full pages of my passport cramp into PDF for less than 3MB

30th July - Pending document check

31st July - 4pm+- Pending approval

31st July - 5.53pm Approved

I’m actually quite surprised on fast approval, despite some people telling that Thai Embassy Kuala Lumpur is one of the hardest place for e-Visa applications

Again, millions of thanks for the advices and support given in here appreciate that 🙏🏻

Had an interesting experience at Jomtien Immigration Office this morning. I was there applying for my yearly extension of stay based on marriage. Handed over the wad of paperwork to the lady at desk 6 that deals with Thai family. After checking all the financials and marriage documents she homes in on the family photos. She spoke to my wife and returned all the documents and rejected our application. Apparently my wife was inappropriately dressed for a visa application in the photos. We were both wearing shorts and T-shirts. All three previous extensions had been granted with the exact same photos. So we had to return to our condo and get a fresh set of photos taken and printed and then back to Immigration to resubmit our application. Eventually we walked out of the Office at 1pm with the under consideration stamp in my passport. The Immigration Officer who rejected the photos was the same Officer who had previously accepted them. Go figure....

Hello I’m married and my wife is Thai . I am currently in the United States Army and recently heard of the Ucis Pip (parole in place) are me and my wife eligible for this to get her initial entry into America? As I am trying to avoid having to wait years for the marriage visa to be approved please let me know if anyone has information on this.

I'm currently going through the process of obtaining a marriage certificate and ultimately a marriage visa, at what point in the whole process can I apply for a Thai driver's license?

I finally found a bank to open an account for me, but it has taken me 3 weeks to do it. I came into Thailand on a 90 Day Non O Visa based on family (married to a Thai). I put the 800K Baht into the bank and have to leave it in there for a minimum of 2 months before I apply for a Non O Retirement Visa. I am also told that when I apply for my visa I must apply at least 15 days before expiry of my 90 Day visa. I will only have 9 days left to apply.

Can I extend my 90 Day Visa for a week or 2. Or must I leave Thailand and come in on a 30 day Exemption. Any other thoughts?

My boyfriend has just received his U.S. passport and will be flying to Bangkok, Thailand in September 2025,but he was convicted of felony which he served time for and is now off parole. My question is will he be allowed entry in to Thailand and are there any further documents he would need to make his entry here in Thailand go smoothly?

Once he has arrived Thailand we are hoping to get married and make his stay here long term.

I am a Thai citizen my boyfriend is ( US citizen)

Please advise any comments and information will be most helpful.

Thanks You

A follow-up question if I may, as the advice was very helpful last time! I just entered Thailand yesterday on 60 day visa exempt stamp, can I apply for a Non-IMM O 90 visa anytime or do I have to wait a certain number of days? Also, how long does this take to process?

I ask as I am on a bit of a timeline, trying to get the 90 day, then wait, then apply for yearly extension on marriage, before I go to UK for Christmas! The months fly by. Thank you so much.

Hi all,

Is it still possible to get a 12 month multi entry non-o based on marriage visa? Last year I got this from Savannakhet. I've looked on the Savannakhet website and also on this new e-visa website and there is no mention of this. It only details a single entry non o 90 day visa. Thanks in advance for any responses.

I’m not sure about this.

Possible to apply re-entry permit either single or multiple for 90 days non O based on marriage ?

My plan is to apply 90 days non O. Then go to Thailand to activate it. Open bank account, then back to Malaysia to sort other personal things out and also tranfer 400k baht by Swift while in Malaysia.

And anyone know if there is re-entry counter at Hatyai International Airport?

Thank you in advance
