Visa question, applying for a Non-O. Already in Thailand.

The Immigration in our town says they cannot accept my US marriage certificate or daughter’s birth certificate because it has not been approved by an embassy.

Documents have local and state seals. Any suggestions on what we can do next. Without leaving Thailand and applying outside.

Thanks in advance

Just checking

We married in The Netherlands and want to register our marriage in Thailand too. Than I can base the yearly extention of a Non-immigrant O visa on our marriage. I had our marriage certificate legalized here in The Netherlands by the MFA and the Thai embassy. So far so good.

I found a translator in Bangkok who will do the registration at the MFA in Bangkok. For that I will provide here with the legalized marriage certificate, a legalized copy of my passport by the Dutch embassy, a copy of the Thai identity card of my spouse and his Tabien Baan. The translator will send the registered document to our address in Phitsanulok. Than I will register our marriage at the municipality (Amphur). I was told that I should insist to keep the original marriage certificate for Immigration, the Amphur should keep a copy. I hope this goes well. Anyone who has experience with this?

Having done all this, after two months of stay I can ask Immigration for extension of my visa, based on our marriage. My Thai spouse has a bank account with more than 400,000 baht, so I don't need a bank account of my own. At least that's what Immigration told me in April when we were there. But if necessary I can open a bank account of my own with a Certificate of Residence, to be provided by Immigration. To be sure, I will check again with Immigration after our arrival.

For the extension next year we will not have 400,000 baht any more on my spouses bankaccount, we will use the money for a house (to assure my rights, we will register an Usufruct agreement for as long as I live). But the Dutch embassy can provide an affidavit about my pension, that's enough. Just to be sure, I will also check this with Immigration.

Anyone any comment? Did I miss something? Thank you.

Hello all, my wife and I are planning to move to Thailand in the next couple of years and are in the planning stages. I am a dual citizen (Thai/US) and she’s American. We were married in the US and have our US marriage certificate. Do I need to register and/or obtain a Thai marriage certificate as well? The ultimate goal is to get her on a marriage visa at least for now when we moved there .  Also, can we do the paperwork here in the United States through our regional Consulate? I did a bit of research and i’m a bit confused between the marriage certificate KR22 as well. Thank you so much for any information. 

Hi my husband (US citizen) married with me (thai citizen) in USA and we have certificate in USA. We are would like to do non-o visa. I am wondering how can i apply got Kor ror22? Married certificate need to notary in Thai embassy in USA only or can US embassy in Thailand do for this issue?

If it is difficult to get notary in Thailand, can we marry in Thailand again? But i am not sure how to find documents for 6.1.3. Any recommendations?

Hi I live in Koh Tao and got married to a Thai in the UK in 2023. I want to change from my non-o 90 day visa to a one year non-o visa.

Have been told by my visa agent that she doesn't know how to help me... 🙄so hopefully you guys can help me.

What do I need to do? I have read many threads and there is always contradictory advice so I am very lost.

Do I apply for the 'affirmation of marriage status' form on the UK gov website? That form is worded as if it is for unmarried persons and also asks what date and location I'm going to be married in, which makes me think that is the wrong form for someone who is already married. Don't want to pay £75 for the wrong form.

I have heard I need to get a "kor ror 22" and also certify my UK marriage certificate then get it translated but not sure how to go about it.

Can anyone please shine some light on what I need to do?

Thank you!

Married to thia citizen uk marriage. On thai tourist visa now in thailand .can I apply for thia marriage visa or do you need to be married in thailand to qualify

How about steps neccessary to get a non o marriage visa without an agent. Can my Thai wife assist in the bank deposit procedure. And can I skip the deposit with a years worth of income statement greater than 40,000 baht per month. Lastly is there a printout at immigration with clear cut direction on how to complete all the necessary documents?

Is it possible to get a 30-day extension (without leaving Thailand) for an initial Non-imm O (spouse) visa, in order to buy more time to get other documents ready for the 1-year extension?

Good morning. I am an Australian living in Australia. My Thai wife is living in Bangkok. Our marriage was not registered. I have retired and am planning on moving to Thailand to live. Can you please advise the visa required?

Many thanks 🙏
