Hi Guys,

I am after advice on my application for visa extension based on marriage to a Thai citizen. I am aware of the requirements, however, there is a slight issue regarding 2 local witnesses from home area attending the office to attest for us.

The problem being that I entered Thailand early June and after quarantine I went to our rented condo in Khon Kaen and then purchased a new property. The purchase is complete and my wife is completing the blue book today so plan to start the visa extension process next week. However, we visit the property daily but have not moved in yet as we have various deliveries of household goods coming and fitted units etc.

So the problem will be getting to meet locals and asking them to attest for us.

In this situation is there another option to provide proof as we know plenty of people in Khon Kaen but just not in that local area.

We were planning on possibly paying local people for their time to attend the office to attest for us, so this could be an option.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance 👍
