I believe a DTV Visa is for 5 years. But do I have to leave Thailand every 6 months? Or is it possible to re-stamp and stay permanently for the 5 years?

Just considering options comparing to a marriage visa which im planning shortly.

Hi All, I am a UK resident wanting to retire to Thailand early next year, I want to apply for a marriage visa whilst in thailand, I have a Thai wife and a son from previous Thai marriage, I will have the 60 day visa exemption, where do I go from there, advice greatly appreciated.

Hi, I have just received my non immigration O visa and I will be applying for a marriage visa, I know the process for this.

I'm booking my flight and it will obviously be 1 way, could this create a problem at UK check in,as I don't have a return ticket?

Thanks in advance.

When applied for the marriage visa at Hua hin and shown all documentation and received non o 90 days, when go back after 90 days do they re check all paperwork and bank balance or just stamp the yearly one in.

Hi guys, I have a question. For married visa do I need to do entry stamp or reporting every 3 months or no need ?

What's all this dribble on Bangkok Bank and visas? Is this going to affect renewing my Marriage Visa with the 400k in the bank for 3 months? But BKK Bank is only providing the certificate/statement if it's been there for 4? Is this Thailand wide? It's great that there's a crackdown on people abusing the system with dodgy agents, but is this going to affect people doing it correctly with the immigration 3 month rule?

Part 2 of the marriage visa nightmare.

So. Drove back down to Korat immigration for another shot at the marriage visa. Had all the same paperwork from last time still stamped and everything. Fixed the ONE misplaced signature from last time. And BAM

NOW for some reason there's a signature that is wrong on our house contract. THE SAME HOUSE CONTRACT FROM LAST VISIT. THAT STILL HAS THE LAST IOs STAMP AND SIGNATURE ON IT.

Our landlord happens to be out of town and cannot expedite her information signature and ID card. So yay.

Have to come back FOR THE THIRD TIME. I am beyond angry at this point. The amount of time and money I have wasted on this is absolutely insane.

I am at a loss for words at this point. How is it paperwork last time that was correct signed and stamped now incorrect.

Sorry end of rant.

If living in on a marriage visa on your property, does cleaning your car/motorbike or watering your plants and gardening constitute to working in the eyes of immigration?

Hi guys, I'm the thai husband (but cant speak thai) and trying to extend my wife's 3 months non-o visa to marriage visa and getting the kor ror 22 from District office for the first time. (we were married overseas).

I've been told I must go back to chiangmai district office to do the kor ror 22 (my house registration is in chiangmai). While there are some others which says I can do it anywhere. Can someone please verify? much thanks

Well. Exhausted after another draining day at immigration. All in all im just tired of how ridiculous the marriage visa is. It also doesn't help we live about 2 hours from immigration. One small mistake and entire application in the garbage.

Also it's wild. They had one lady processing any and all of the long term visas. After waiting 5 hours I was only the 4th to be seen that day. In a que of 19...

Few points of advice. Avoid the marriage visa like the plague, book online appointments and dont move 2 hours from immigration haha.

Cheers I need a drink or 8 now.
