My next border run is coming up. Planning to fly to Vietnam for a week. What's your current experience re-entering to Bangkok? Were you asked for documents or confirmation of your bank balance?
An alternative would be to cross the border into Laos at Nakhon Phanom. Does anyone have experience with this?
I have a question for those who applied through the French Embassy in Paris.
What did you write in the "place of issue" field of your passport?
I know this has been debated for months. Some people recommend writing exactly what’s printed on the passport, but I’ve also heard of applications being denied for that and advised instead to write the country name. What’s the right approach? The embassy is unreachable by phone and doesn’t respond to emails.
Hello, I am married to a Thai woman and I will be arriving in Thailand on a non-immigrant visa O staying with a Thai family. I will then apply for a marriage visa. I have my thai bank account and the deposit.
What documents do I need to provide to immigration? Because the problem is:
I registered my marriage in Canada and they required my Thai marriage certificate so I no longer have it in my possession. What should I do if Thai immigration requires this certificate? Is a copy accepted since I no longer have the original. Thank you.
Hello !! I have a DTV visa. Based on my first entry, my 90 days would be up in October this year. However, I plan to leave Thailand in September for a trip and then return. Does the 90-day report continue counting from my first entry, or does it restart from the new entry date?
How many times you can apply for a NoN O based on marriage per year? Is there a limit? In example I will go this November for 3 Months to Thailand and would like to do the same next year in September 2026.
