totally agree, as I was told this year I couldn't obtain the non o based on family at savanakhet consulate due to having a ed visa in my passport ( and they won't accept any ed stamp in passports) , but the school I attended was 100 per cent legit they even had immigration officers who would turn up there and inspect.
my marriage is legal and we already have the thai rose bordered marriage certificate but will definitely get a newly printed one when applying early next year.
Soon as I get back in thailand but I wouldn't be applying for the year extension until middle of next year this is why I applied for the non o multiple entery
for myself I'll be leaving every 90 days and then returning so I won't have to go to immigration but if come in on single entery after you change to the year , you have to report every 90 days to you're local immigration, but again please check all this information with you're local immigration.
surly that is to extend to the 1 year visa ? Where 400k has too deposited 2 months in thai bank before applying for the extension ,? I have applied for the non o multiple entry
