Permanent Residency question

I’m considering applying for PR. What is the full process - I’m married to a Thai National. As a UK citizen, what’s the process for notarising (and apostille) for education certificates. Anyone know a company in Bangkok that can handle the process for a fee (and police report)

I am currently on Non-O based on marriage first 90-day entry. I am scheduled to leave 11th March and I had a trip planned which I need to cancel now. I have only put the 400k in to my Thai Bank today, so it will not be seasoned for the full 2 mths before March 11.

Question I guess is can my local immigration give me a 60 day extension to be able to then process my 1 year extension in April instead to save me having to leave?

My wife is going to purchase a house shortly in Phrae province.

As we have to return to UK in 6 weeks time (whilst I am here on a 90 day visa so won’t be extending it this trip) how long does it take to get a blue book which I guess would only be in my wifes name?

Would this entitle me as married to a thai, the yellow book which, when I return to Thailand Oct ‘26, makes things a bit easier for opening a bank account in place of a certificate of residence?

My marriage visa was stamped for Jan 22nd. We arrived October 24th. I would like to extend it an additional 60 days. What is the timeframe for doing so and do I need a bank account. Do I just show up at immigration with the documents I have? Thank you for your time

Hi all , I have an account with Bangkok Bank but I have been out of Thailand for over a year . I’ve seen there have been issues with people having their accounts frozen, I’ve also read that it doesn’t affect people who are married to a Thai and have an address in Thailand both of which apply to me . Can anyone confirm this to be correct ?

I’ll soon be returning to Thailand but I’m not sure if I should transfer money from my UK account to Bangkok bank or not .

If they were to suspend my account would they give notice ?

I’ve logged into my account’s app and everything seems to be ok at present .

Any advice would be welcome . Thanks .

I am getting married to my Thai partner in early July and wish to retire in Thailand. I have started to an application for a non o visa and I got extremely bogged down around the fourth page asking for things like proof of medical insurance and funds in a Thai bank account as well as a medical certificate and police clearance. Am I approaching this the right way. I am from Australia. I'm sure that this kind of question has been asked repeatedly however, any constructive information would be greatly appreciated. I intend to register our marriage and apply for a spousal visa.

Hello. I wonder if someone could help me with a visa question.

Im entering Thailand next week with a visa exempt 60 days with my 2 babies and my Thai boyfriend. We will get married in Thailand and apply for the Non o single entry visa and later do the 1 year extension

Does anyone know if I have to leave Thailand to apply for my non o visa ? Or can I apply for it inside Thailand? Would it matter if I came with a tourist visa or visa exempt ?

Thank you 🙏☺️
