Hello everyone!

While its kinda difficult to find a clear information I decided to try here. We are planning to move to Thailand for minimum 1 year. Im EU citizen my husband is Thai - we got married in my country. We have 2 small kids - and already got advised to make thai birth certificates and thai passports for them (so they can enter Thailand as thais) but we are not clear how to do about me.

Maybe I can find here some farang woman having thai husband - that would be perfect to ask some questions about visas and stuff. Wish to know if we can book one way tickets for all our family and just apply for some family spouse visa for me after we arrive - or betternto do.it before booking tickets? what are the requirements (financial especially..) How about some insurance for me? Will my husband be able to provide from his insurance (after he gets job in Thailand)..

would love to hear any advice from you'all 😊

Some visa questions (and thanks very much in advance)

My family and I are starting the process of moving from Nevada to Hua Hin. My wife is a Thai citizen and my 19 year old daughter was born in Bangkok. We moved back to the USA when my daughter was 2 years old so the only Thai ID we have for her is her birth certificate and she has a US passport. My mother and I are American.

Questions: For my daughter, do we need to go to the consulate in Los Angeles to get her a Thai passport, or can she just get a 90 day visa online with my mom and me and then get Thai ID after she gets to Thailand, or can she just show her birth certificate and get a visa on arrival without a return ticket?

How long does it take to get the online 90 day visa, and do we have to wait for my mom to get her US passport to apply.

Would rather not go to LA if possible, long drive, hotel stays, etc But also don't want to have to buy round trip tickets.

Thanks so much!

I would like to know other expats experience.

Mine is that my wife secured her fiancé visa to the other country almost entirely without my help. Yes, she is very intelligent. She also bought a Thai restaurant in the other country almost entirely without my help again. I had to quit my job to help. Yes, she paid me a lot more than my previous job. Now she is an other country citizen and we both collect other country senior citizen benefits.

My point is…all the expat men that I know and got married in Thailand were unable to bring their Thai wife to the other country.

My conclusion is that it may be easier to get a fiancé visa as opposed to another type of visa.

That’s my experience. What is your experience?

I just heard of UMBRELLA work permit what how much cost?

so then I'll fulfill the citizenship requirements for 3 years working and paying taxes, if done for next 3 years ?, im married to thai girl. As I'm a freelancer work remotely so can't fulfill this work permit rule

I'm thinking about OPENING BUSINESS under my wife name and she grants me work visa so then I'll fulfill the citizenship requirements for 3 years working and paying taxes, if done for next 3 years ? Is it possible? As I'm a freelancer work remotely so can't fulfill this rule

Any advice is much appreciated.

For Thai citizenship, the only path is working and paying taxes.. including married to Thai nationals ?
