I am a American extending my Thai non-immigrant visa. My Myanmar wife is on a spouse visa attached to mine so her's mus extend at the same time. We were married in Myanmar and we have all the OG documents and translations.

Thai immigration has asked for a copy of our marriage certificate translated to English and certified by the Myanmar Embassy. The Myanmar Embassy tells us they cannot do it, only in Myanmar.

Thai immigration wants a document certified by Myanmar saying we are married. Seems like we are certifying certifications. Any ideas?

Hi everyone,

I already have a DTV visa with about 4.5 years remaining, and I’d like to ask a couple of questions:

1. If I find a job in Thailand and need to switch to a work permit / non-immigrant visa for about 1 year, what happens to my DTV visa? Does it get automatically canceled, or does it remain valid so I can use it again after the work visa expires?

2. What happens if I already have an active DTV visa but change employer without changing the nature of my work? For example, if I leave my current remote job, stay unemployed for a short period, and then find another remote job (not based in Thailand), possibly with a company in another European country or elsewhere, would this affect my DTV status in any way?

Thank you in advance!

Good afternoon,

I am filling a TM.8 form as I am flying abroad on 13th April. I came on a non o visa in October and have an extension to January 2027, this was processed in Chon Buri immigration office. On the back of TM.8 it asks, after ticking Non-Immigrant Visa box, issued at and date. So can I assume that this is Chon-Buri on the date I received my extension? I know I can do this at the airport but I have to do my 90 day report this week, so thought i'd do this while I'm there.

Thanks in advance

Michael

Is it true that you can’t buy a 1 way ticket into Thailand and must show proof of a return ticket or a ticket out of Thailand?

That sounds impossible if we come in on a 1 way ticket so we can make visas while we are there..

- Thank you everyone for your answers and opinions

Answer- YES

DTAC (digital Thai arrival card) that must be filled online before arrival asks for

*outbound ticket number

*outbound date

Your advice prompted me to apply for Non-immigrant visa online for my husband. - which HAD to be applied for whilst NOT IN Thailand.

So good thing I got onto that.

Then an extension applied at a Thai immigration centre when in Thailand.

🙏🏽

Hello, the first year of my non imm spouse visa is coming to an end and its time to renew. Is it 2 or 3 months the 400k has to be in the bank before the application date?

Also, i know BKK bank requires 4 months, did any other banks sign on with this?

This will be done at CW immigration in BKK

Thanks for any information.

My Partner is currently in Thailand on a non-immigrant B Visa and work permit. Employment will end soon and she wants to spend some time in Thailand to finally relax before deciding what to do next.

Is it possible to end the non-B Visa, leave Thailand to go home, apply almost immediately for a 60+30 day tourist visa and come back?

I was told this doesn't count as a visa run due to the prior full time employed in Thailand. Could alternatively do visa exempt of 60 days but we don't want to take risk.

After applying in Hanoi with uploading proofs that submission application was there, do I have to wait for Visa approval in Hanoi or can I travel around in Vietnam?

Hi everyone I am just looking for advice and doing some research on moving to thailand. As a 29 year old, how could i move to thailand? I understand i would maybe have to arrive on a tourist visa and then extend after establishing a bank account and having proof of income, but i would like to hear more opinions from others. I also was looking to apply for a 90 day visa and attend a language school but i dont know much about thai language schools. Any advice for a permanently disabled veteran? I WILL be reading every comment and might not reply to most but i appreciate any opinion or wisdom. Should i rent a place in thailand to move to on my 60-90 day visit before arriving and extend by using that rental agreement or is it more complicated than that? In reality I would like to become a permanent resident and spent the rest of my days there.
