I'm considering to apply in Taipei but based on some posts in this group, they are requesting showing income deposits / payslips from your employer. I even saw the same requirements on the updated Jakarta embassy website.

I just started my remote role in November and was unemployed for a while before that, so I won't have any income deposits on my bank statements when I apply there next week.

Any advice? Do you think I'll be okay given my start date, or anything else I should mention / provide? Thanks all!

My german husband and I live in Chiang Mai. He is currently on a tourist exemption (45 days) including a tourist visa extension (+30 days). The extension is granted until 25.12.2022.

I'm a Thai citizen and we were only able to register the marriage just now (due to needing more translated and certified documents).

Now we wanted to change his Tourist Visa to a Non-Immigrant Visa for spouses but I have seen that you can only apply 15 days before your Visa runs out. As Monday, 12.12.2022 is a national holiday, the immigration in Chiang Mai will also be closed. He can apply for the Visa change the earliest on Tuesday, 13.12.2022, which is only 12 days away from the 25.12.2022.

I also doubt that we will get all the specified documents needed ready by then. Do we even need all of the documents when applying, or can we apply and get a little bit more time to get all the documents ready? E.g. they want to see a copy of the bank saving's account but as of now he couldn't open a Thai bank account. Only possible when he already applied for the Non-Immigrant Visa.

Can we extend the Tourist Visa one more time? Or is leaving the country for a few days and getting a new Tourist Visa the best option,

Are there any other options we could do?

Thank you all in advance, And let me know if you need more information to properly give us an answer. :)

I noticed someone was asking about getting his marriage certificate translated to thai OR ENGLISH so he could get an extension on his Non-O. When I asked at immigration last year in Sisaket, I was told that I needed my certificate which was in English translated to thai. Were they wrong? Is an English certificate acceptable?
