I'm in Vietnam now, my partner is Thai and we have a daughter, who is dual Thai and British, can I apply for a single entry non o in Ho Chin Minh without showing money in the bank and then get a job and apply for a work permit using the same visa?

Is there anyone here who applied for a one year NON O visa based on having a thai child and immigration did not ask for proof of income or 400,000 baht in their bank?? Someone told me immigration didn’t ask for any income requirements and gave them the visa. obviously it varies by offices and people. I just want to know if this has happened to more people?

Affidavit of a Family Member Form

Immigration gave me this form for my visa extension. Support of a Thai child

Its a new form to me, but I want to get it right. As I understand it it's a family member confirming your family.

The first part looks like its filled in by the family member, can this be anyone? Wife? Mother in law?

Second part my details?

Third part

Signature 1. Family member

Signature 2. Competent officer? Imm officer?

Signature 3. Witness? Who can sign?

Hi everyone,

I’m wondering if anyone here has experience changing from an ED visa to a Non-O visa (based on family, with a Thai child).

Can this change be done inside Thailand without needing to leave the country?

What steps did you take, and what documents were needed?

I’d really appreciate any advice or tips from those who’ve gone through this process. Thanks in advance!

Time to renew my non o visa based on having a Thai child. I have done this a few times but would like some advice in case anything has changed.

I am still married but we changed the non o specification based on a technicality. My current visa expires on December 31 2024. I am eager to apply as late as possible to avoid having to apply in December every year. Given bangkok immigration office closures on December 30-31, I am considering going on December 27th.

I will bring:

Completed TM7 with photos,

my child’s birth certificate in English and Thai,

letter from his school confirming his attendance,

marriage certificate,

my wife’s Thai id and tabian baan,

receipt of TM30,

12 months stamped bank statements

proof of funds going back 3 months having over 400,000 THB in a Thai bank

2 pics outside the house, 2 pics inside the house, Map of applicant house in Thailand

I will make 2 copies of everything.

Is there anything I am missing or that I should be aware of?

Thanks so much for all your support 🙏

I need to apply for a multiple entry non-O visa, taking care of my Thai children. Is there still a consulate nearby that doesn't ask for this 400k Thai bank statement?

UPDATED WITH PICTURE OF VISA.

NON-O Visa (Thai child)

Here's my experience with HCMC Thai embassy.

Made an appointment online for today..showed up with Copy of my daughters birth certificate, ID card & house registration book

I didn't print anything to do with financial statements as it wasn't very clear what they wanted as all it says on the website is "2.5. Applicant’s financial statement of adequate finance is required." They wanted 6 months bank statements and a balance of 20k in any bank/currency.

Showed 6 months statements from Krungsri download from app and printed and a print out of current balance of Lloyd's UK bank and paid the 200USD visa fee.

Received my wee slip to pick up the 12 month multiple entry non-o on Tuesday..copy shop just round the corner so quick and easy if needing extra paperwork printed out.
