Is there a minimum passport validity requirement when applying for a non-O marriage visa extension in Thailand?

Scott *********

ok. Thanks.

So either way I lose.

Wait til my next visa renewal and then only get 7 months visa

Or renew my passport and lose a year from the passport.

Was it always like this. I thought I got the 9 months transferred onto my last passport 8 years ago. I could be wrong but I do seem to remember they added it

What are my options for obtaining a long-term visa in Thailand as a tourist planning to retire?

Scott *********

Just go get the forms. They will have a list of requirements. I have always done myself.

It’s not that hard. Agent just costs money.

14 years I’ve done my own. Never problem.

Just leave plenty of time as they will sure ask for something you don’t have first time.
