That is not a trailing spouse visa, as that is as a dependant on a foreign spouse.

It is unclear the rules on 2 foreigners.

If you are married to a Thai.

You will apply for the non-o visa based on being married to a Thai.

Requiring all the relevant documents.

However it is unclear on the exact rules, as no one has processed one yet.

The belief is the foreign same-sex spouse will have to provide financial evidence, of 400k in a Thai bank.

You will have to go to your local immigration for the requirements to be sure.

It is a 90 day non-o visa, not considered a long-stay.

It would then be extended in country 1 year at a time.

please refer to the visa type.

Thai immigration consider it a tourist visa as it is aimed at "leisure activities".

And it's in the the wording "workation" for the remote workers.

It is not a non-o and a category of its own.

DTV is a tourist visa.

Most banks will not allow unless you use an agent.

I do not know of 1 DTV that has been successful without.

In Phuket you need your original marriage certificate, does not have to be in Thai or certified.

You will need a koror 22 from the local Amphur.

All the information you need for Phuket can be found at piv-phuket.com

Or go to room 204 and speak with the volunteers at the entrance and can explain exactly what you need.

The non-o is not a longstay visa.

It is a 90 day visa that is extendable in Thailand.
