Hi peeps I'm married to thai lady I love in uk how can I move to Thailand to be with her and live she has her own home and job I'm 58 with not lot money please advise

Hello Everyone

I have moved to Thailand with my Thai wife last year in October on a retirement 0-A multiple entry 12month visa.

As I will be starting a business next year (and will be applying for a work permit then) I was told I need to change my visa to the marriage to Thai national one.

My entry stamp stay is valid until 0ct 03.

Do I need to leave Thailand and apply again for the marriage visa from Laos or Vietnam for example or could this be done without leaving the country at the immigration office?

Ideally I would like to effect the change without the need to leave Thailand.

Thanks a million in advance for your kind help.

Can I enter Thailand visa exempt and change to retirement based on marriage?

Good Day, I need some good guidance here as my 1st plan didn't work out well. Came here to retire, bought a house(fiancee's name), car, scooter, etc., BUT came on an STV and now have to leave and will go back home. Question, what is the best path/steps to take (best = quick, efficient, thought-out, etc.,) to get back here and stay? I hear the retirement route is the best way. Obviously not an expert on visa's and immigration policy. TIA

Posting for a friend.

She has left her Thai husband and is on the marriage visa. Does anyone know if she can transfer to another visa without leaving the country during Covid times?
