I am looking for some information because I am unsure of what the process.
I will be returning to Thailand at the end of this month I am an Australian citizen so I guess I will get the 30 day entry visa however I would like to apply for the retirement visa.
I am not sure but I think I would have to apply for the three month extension and at the same time apply for the retirement visa.
Is this the correct and easy way of doing it I had been living in Thailand previously for six years but that visa as well and truly expired however I still have the required money in the bank.
I would appreciate any help or further information of what the correct procedure is.
IDP international driving license / insurance question.
I'm a regular visitor to Sakon Nakhon and have a couple of people who kindly let me use their cars when I visit. I have an IDP with my full British driving license but am unsure if the owners insurance will cover me for the odd days that I borrow a car.
Later this year I'm moving to Thailand under a DTV visa an I'll probably take the Thai driving test as well to be sure.
Hi, with regard to marriage registration.....I have the affidavit and certified copy of my passport from the Canadian embassy and I know we need to go to a department of consular affairs to register the marriage. Questions:
1. Do we both need to go together or can just one of us go?
2. Does it matter which office we go to? Normally we are in Bangkok, but we will be in Chumphon next week (where we will get married). My wife's ID card shows Chumphon but she lives in Bangkok
I'm returning to Canada on the 22nd and I could book an appointment for the 21st in the Bangkok office, but it wouldn't be convenient for my wife to attend (hence question 1)
Hi, for the yearly extension of non imm o visa based on marriage it is possible instead of the thai bank deposit to give a certified letter from the embassy that shows my salary? Thanks.
