I married my Thai wife 36 years ago in the US on the K-1 visa. We didn’t change her last name. A few years later, I changed my last name to her last name.

@Jeremy *******

this is an example of why you should not post on facebook while intoxicated. Your info is the opposite of truth and reality.

You have the right idea mate.

@William ********

put more faith in your wife.

there is no conspiracy on the part of Thai immigration.

From what I understand at Ratchaburi immigration, you need to deposit B400k for the first year of a marriage visa. Then you can switch to the B40k per month deposit to your account.

If one can’t get B400k or B800k, then that person who has little money needs to spend an extra B25k-B60k additionally every year. Without my Thai wife I could not have gotten it done on a timely basis.

@Khun *****

yes, it will be better. Most Thai people will be either embarrassed or afraid and therefore cannot help.

I just looked at my account at Krungthai bank. In June, they gave me B200.47 for interest and tax. I’m shocked it earned anything at all.

Let me know who predicted future events successfully.

no, I don’t.
