What is the best plan for a British expat to marry a Thai citizen and apply for a NON-O visa?

Biff *******

There’s a few steps you need to do before you can get married. Check the U.K. in Thailand page by the British embassy. There’s a bit of running around in Bangkok to do before you can go to the Amphur office. You’ll need an affirmation of freedom to marry. That needs to be translated into Thai and stamped by the Thai MFA.

Do I need a re-entry permit for Thailand if I'm traveling abroad on a Retirement extension?

Biff *******

Apply for a new extension, and buy a re-entry permit, Go to Scotland, come back on the re-entry permit, go through whatever quarantine procedures are in place then. Job done.

Can my friend obtain a COVID extension for her retirement visa in Thailand if her extension expires before her return?

Biff *******

@Benjamin *****

Surely she doesn’t have to wait until he 8th of April? Worth going to immigration and asking them if she can sort something out before the March 30th deadline.

Can you change an extension of stay in Thailand from retirement (Non-O) to employment (Non-B)?

Biff *******

I imagine it's because that's a more normal progression. People who work retire from that work. People who have already retired tend not to go back to work.

Can I switch from a Non-ED visa to a Covid 60-day extension after cancelling my Non-ED visa in Thailand?

Biff *******

Why would you want to do that? You will be standing in the immigration office in Chiang Mai when you cancel your Ed extension. Why would you want to fly to Bangkok and then schlep all the way out to immigration to do what you could have done when you were already at CM immigration?

Can I extend my education visa by visiting Thai family if the COVID extension is not available?

Biff *******

Hopefully, when you typed 40k baht, that was a typo?

You need ฿400,000 for a year long extension of stay based on being married to a Thai if you’re using the banked money method.

Personally, I would prioritise being able to legally stay in the country and get myself to the immigration office on the 19th.
