false. Nothing but my passport, proof of address registration (TM30) last 90 day report receipt and departure card (TM6)

not at all. Was there about 2 and maybe 30 people there. I would be shocked if I was there more than 15 minutes.

It’s been down for a while. Lots of promises as to when it will return.

I did my in person today at MTT. In and out in minutes. They make you hand write a TM47. Then they scanned my old one, printed a new one and threw away the one I wrote. No idea why I had to write it. But TIT. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@Steve ******

not for me in BKK. I have to show the updated bank book when I pick up the extension. I’m currently “under consideration” and they told me the only thing I have to do when I come back is make sure my bank book is updated again. So once I get the extension then I’m free to do whatever.

@Stu***

understand. I wasn’t trying to be an ass. I was just making a point. Sorry if it came out wrong.

And also why my last sentence said pretty much exactly what you said.

One of the enduring problems with “definitive advice” in this forum is that definitive advice for BKK or Ubon immigration won’t be definitive advice for your local immigration. So while it sounds like someone is being a smart ass to say “ask immigration” it’s actually the best advice available.

Unless, of course, someone has recently renewed their visa in your specific office.

@Gre****

supposedly 3 months. But no one asked me when we did the first 90 day check in.

David correct and that was a massive pain in the ass at the local district office in the village. But in the end we got it done and have the Thai certification of the marriage (not sure of the proper name).

David it was on their checklist of items required. We went and got a list while I was on the 90 day from Laos and we were preparing all the extension paperwork.

I never had a freedom of affirmation to marry. I did nothing with the embassy here. Maybe because we were married in America ?

But yeah I agree with you. Funny thing is I am twice divorced. One in America and one in Japan and that one is in Japanese and translated to English. I’m sure they have no idea what they were.

David Broadfoot I respectfully disagree based on my personal experience. I had to show my original divorce decree for my first extension of stay last year and for the follow up this year. First one in Ubon and this year in BKK.
